It whil never be as good or reliable as a suzukie Yamaha honda or even a tohatsu especially when they get older i even prefer a 15 year old suzukie or honda or even a 25 year old yamaha with a lot of hours even one that hase bin abused
hay i was out today at littl creek boat dock on lake norman trying out my new eng the same name as your a 6.0 hp but i just got up to 5.4 mph is there something on the eng i can make it faster ?
It sounds like you're not getting on plane. What kind of boat are you using? With our inflatable dinghies and the 6.0, we could only really get on plane by shifting the weight to the front of the boat on takeoff and that only worked with 1 person in the boat. Too much weight and it wouldn't plane, effectively cutting the top speed in half. We have a couple videos on some modifications we did to improve the performance, but the results in our case were negligible. Depending on the boat, you may have better results. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ko-C1Fctb-0.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-pKVzYykPbk4.html
I'm amazed that a Chinese made outboard when property maintained can last so long, and I also own a 4k Chinese made TCL smart tv and it works great. And one more thing Toyota and Honda made the American car companies look bad back in the 70's 80's, and 90's because Japanese made cars especially Toyotas are some of the most reliable vehicles in the world. But that's just my opinion.
That is exactly what we have been telling people. The Chinese can make good stuff, but more often than not, we're buying cheaper small goods from China. There is a lot of manufacturing and engineering experience over there and I think they could be on par with some of the Japanese stuff in a decade or two. The main thing we've noticed is that the products are not always consistent. Thats why we always buy 2 of everything to test out. We have been testing out some Chinese motorcycles for the past month or so as well. Hopefully we can get some videos of that out soon!
American had a couple bad cars and 90s. But not all their cars that made them look Bad. And the Japanese used to hide their recalls. American car companies got cars in a million mile range. Once the toilet is blocked, they're done.
What about moving water? On a river? Can you jet these motors for colder wether areas? What about replacing parts? Like engine rebuilds? Pistons rings? Crank rebuild? Or should i simply buy a real outboard made by mercury! 😂
On our dinghies we can hit about 12 - 13 MPH with one person on board and around 7 MPH with 2+ people. If you're gonna be mostly on the river, I would at least go for the 12 HP Hangkai, it's a big step up from the 6.0 HP.
i'm thinking of buying a hangkai 6hp two storke. is it worth the money? and were did you get the handle extension? And are there outlets for hose for an extra fuel tank?
yes and yes. onlything that fails is the fuelwitch and ofcourse getting crap in the carb. i also dont like the weird fuelline they have (from like 12mm to 6mm with a 90 degree bend) impossible to find replacement
@@staceyryan7317 the fuelline i "repaired" by using a shrink tube over it. the alternative is to use a straight fuel line but this results in an airgap since the line will go down then upwards. Would maybe try to epoxy a 90% fitting to the bottom but u would need a fuel resistant epoxy. It also lacks any space for a fuel filter which makes the carb choke randomly. The engine itself works wonders. no idea how they messedup the fuelline and fuelswitch so badly
I have mine on an 8 ft inflatable sports boat. I cannot get the boat faster than 4 mph. The engine sounds just fine but no speed whatsoever. Any suggestions? Thanks.
Is the boat able to plane? If our boats aren't on plane, they can only go about 7 mph. We have to shift our weight to the front of the boat on takeoff to get ours to plane with one person. Add a second person and/or a bunch of heavy gear and it becomes impossible.
Oui, c'est très courant pour ce moteur. Regardez notre vidéo sur le réglage du carburateur. J'espère que ça aide! Version courte: ru-vid.comLG4Iqbxq19w Version longue: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-bgejBqP5PU4.html Le réglage standard est de 1 1/4 de tour.
Looks like they're back in stock on Amazon (or at least available to order with a July delivery date). I have a theory that all of the Hangkai listings are run by the same person/company. We ran into the same issue when ordering the 18 last year. I got the last one I could find, but they didn't ship it to me because it was damaged so I had to wait for more stock to come in. Once it did, all of a sudden everybody had them again. Also, if you look at the prices, once you account for shipping they're pretty much all the same too.
I bought the same motor but can't get it registered in the State of Texas because the company will not send me a Bill of Sale or the Manufacturer's Statement of Origin. How did you guys do it? Do you need to register the outboard where you live?
We don't have to register outboards of any size here. You might be able to get a bonded title using the invoice from Amazon (or wherever you bought it from), but as far as I've been able to tell the 6.0 Hangkais don't have serial numbers stamped on them (The 12 & 18 does and the 3.5 also does not). If you haven't tried calling the Wildlife, it might be worth a try. I've called ours a few times and they're always very helpful (your results may vary). I asked about buying one of the cheap eBay inflatables that doesn't come with a HIN or MCO and they told me I could register it as home built. I also bought a jet ski with no paperwork and it turns out all I had to do was fill out an affidavit of vessel purchase and I was able to get a title. You never know if there is some backdoor way they have to get it done. If not, hopefully you can still return it (or sell it to someone in Louisiana).
@@HufflerGarage I finally got the company to send me a Bill of sale and MSO. How? They were told they would not be able to sell anything in Texas without a Bill of Sale and MSO by a the largest online company and the TX Attorney General. If it doesn't have a title when buying used or a Bill of Sale and the MSO when buying new, you are screwed in Texas. It is almost impossible to register or title a boat, motor, or trailer in TX without either a title or Bill of Sale and the MSO.
