Probably could. But I'll continue to use 1 oz of Quickleen and 1 oz of Quickcare per 5 gal of fuel.

Use quickcare and quickleen with gas. Also use REJUVENATE by quicksilver. Very good product with engine that has 500 hours or more. Takes 1 oz. per 10 gallons.

IMO if you run your boat at least once a week, you don't need to put much if any additive in. But if you fill it up and let it sit, its advisable to add something like Biobor or sta-bil.

I use it in my older 200 merc. Sure makes a difference in performance especially after long idles using my electronics.no more bogging down on take offs. My two cents

SEAFOAM, absolutely the best, some may be as good, but you will not go wrong using this. HWH

I use seafoam in every two cycle engine I own. I have never had any issues.

Mercury recommends using their Quicksilver products in your fuel. I use #1 and #2 (one of them is Quickclean) in every tank, and I use #3 (Quickstor) if the fuel may sit up for a while. I also switched from the Mercury oil to the Quicksilver (made by Mercury) oil to realize a cost savings for the same product. Bingo! I agree.

I ran my last Mercury 200 for 910 hours, always ran Premium from Shell, and ran it hard. I sold boat and motor, new owner started using Regular Unleaded, burned #6 piston third time out. I run a 250 Yamaha SHO 4 stroke now, nothing but Premium from Shell. Runs like a Banshee, no ping, no issues!
