Direct-fuel-injection technology.

OptiMax two-stage direct-fuel-injection (DFI) technology atomizes fuel, resulting in more complete combustion for quick and easy starts, better performance, lower emissions, and maximum savings. OptiMax engines are so efficient some owners say driving one is like adding an additional 15-gallon gas tank to their boats.
