Default Fuel consumption 7.4l mcm

Hello,
Anyone say what is the fuel consumption of a 7.4l v8 mercuriser. I have a maxum 2300sc and where I’m from is very limited gas stations. The closest gas station is 30miles away!

It wont be very good, but you could fill the tank full and make a two hour run and top off the tank, divide the gallons used and that will give you a rough idea of the hourly usage gallons per hour.

I agree with Don and would expect it would burn 15 gph at cruising speed.
