OK, I have a 2003 225 EFI Ser# 0T700621. Are the Champion QL77CC plugs the proper plugs for my engine?
I checked the sticky and the spark plugs listed are for 2002 model and earlier. Mine is an 2003
Thanks you for your help..

From sticky:
Spark Plugs:
-QL77CC (Champion) for 3 Liter EFI's (XB models or 2001 and EARLIER: .035" / All 2002-> Down-draft intake models: .040")
-IZFR5G (NGK)@ .032-.033" for Standard Opti's 135-225HP, 2001 200XS, and 200 ProXS PRIOR TO Serial Number#1B912786***
-IZFR5J (NGK) @.032-.033 for 75-115 Opti's
-IZFR6J (NGK)for 150/175/200 ProXS (200 ProXS Serial #1B912786-up) & 225-250 ProXS and Racing XS Motors
-2006 & prior ProXS: .032-.033"
-2007 & up: .042-.044" gap for best idle performance. (150/175/225/250 ProXS/XS)
Way I read it, 2002 and up that have down draft use those plugs set at .040" gap.
My bad, miss read the greater than sign
ANY 3L EFI Mercury requires the QL77CC (only exception is the 300X).
