Unboxing and first start of my new Tohatsu MFS9.8B EFS four stroke outboard motor.
I sold my 6HP outboard over the winter as it wasn't powerful enough for my Honwave T32 when there is more than one person in the boat and my son is coming out fishing with me regularly now. As well as the horse power upgrade I decided to treat myself to the electric start version.
My initial impressions are really positive. It seems to be really well built, is incredibly easy to start (both with the electic and manual start) and runs really quiet. Looking forward to the first trip out on the water with it and will share the breaking in process and my thoughts after use in a future video. Thanks to Tohatsu for their assistance. To purchase the same outboard find your local Tohatsu dealer at www.tohatsu.co.uk/tohatsu-fin...

Nice engine, I’ve got a 9.9 mariner on a sunsport 2.7 and it’s like a bullet, you’ll be amazed at how fast your honwave will go now!

Bought the manual start only version of this same motor from the same online dealer. It's been perfect for our 12' v-hull, and easy to maintain.

I bought a older 18hp 2 stroke a few years back barely used, and its a power house.

@SNEVIC 3 года назад

Hi Chris. Do you know the steering angle of this motor? I mean the number of degrees that the head of the motor can rotate for each side. The yamaha 6Hp has 90°. And this one?

@caymanbiz4114 4 года назад

Hi! Please let us know if it feels smoother? Less vibration on the tiller so hand wont sore as fast.

@matthewparker4101 3 года назад

Great video. Impressed by easy pull start. Was it difficult to fill lower gear oil? cheers

@gigidigiardinis604 2 года назад

cool video mate, i have a similar set up. Just got my outboard delivered. I saw your trolley video, have you had any issues transporting the outboard laying flat instead of upright? was planning on laying it flat in my pickup truck so i can have my bed cover closed.

@alexbilenko2457 2 года назад

Do you think you would need electrical tilt in your case, i got mine without electrical tilt an debating if i need it?

@lmcjmgo1 2 года назад

Hi, Chris nice video. Did you find a big difference between the 6hp and 9.8hp? I am in the same situation. I have the chance to buy a Tohatsu 9.8 2 strokes used... looks very nice Did you have 2 strokes before? big difference?

@cadexim 4 года назад

Thanks for the detailed video. It motivated me to get the same one. I just think it is a bit too heavy after all. Anyhow, have you transported it laying down on its side without removing the oil, is that ok to do? I keep my boat uninflated and did not know I could not transport it like the 6hp. Any tip would be appreciated. Thanks.

@snarlsbarkley5083 3 года назад

Yes you can lay this on it’s side. I have the same motor with electric start purchased in 2009 on my 14’ porta-bote. It’s heavy. 45 kg.

@johnfriesz5596 3 года назад

Can you tell me where you purchased the battery box? Also did the battery come with the motor?

@fatihkurunaz8458 4 года назад

Hey Christopher, thx for the video. I wanna ask you what was the purpose of you to buy a 9.9 hp rather than go with 6hp outboard. Speed, torque, emergency escape from storms..etc? I have a 3.3m inflatable boat with 9.9hp Mercury. Actually it is the same outboard with your Tohatsu. Sometimes i think why i didnt buy a 5 or 6hp. Because this one is 38kg and 12kg fuel tank totally 50kg weight :) And with myself i only use the half power of 9.9hp. Maybe you can explain the difference of their performances, power or other stuffs to understand my choice was OK or not. Thanks a lot.

@tommym4787 10 месяцев назад

Did you struggle with the weight putting it on and off the dinghy? Wa hats the weight around 90 pounds? I really want that 9.8 but will constantly be taking it on and off so am little worried about the weight and was considering getting the 6hp one :/

After being in the water do you have to use a trash can to run clean water or is there a hose for this outboard?

@pahformance180 4 года назад

What's the price and where can I get 1

@ia6980 2 месяца назад

is it difficult to maneuver 9.8? electric start is 88lb dry weight? Im considering upgrading my 6hp to 9.8, I'd love to have electric start but I'm afraid its a little to heavy to carry around 90-92lb with oils.

No, Yamaha make their own outboards. Tohatsu make them for Mariner and Mercury though.

@srileo 3 года назад

Nice new motor. I could feel the vibrations are a lot less. The EFI must help a lot. Any thoughts on why u got rid of the 6hp? Too slow for the boat? Was the 6hp sufficient to plane the boat?

@kaavest 3 года назад

I think this is a carbureator,EFI Start at 9,9 15 and 20 that use the same block, but it,s so called intacemanifoils that give it a silent and steady run.I got one earlier the 25 3 cyl 4 stroke EFI and that one was silent and stable.But this is a good engine and concider it myself.

@A-6864 3 года назад

Do all these tohatsu 9.8 need battery

@travelingwithrick 3 года назад

No. That's just for electric start. You use the manual pull cord no battery needed.

I have the exact same motor, on a Honwave T30. Planes great with two adults. Goes like stink with one.

@neanderthalboneflute6519 4 года назад

Christopher Flannigan it performs really well when the boat is balanced out. One thing to check though; I’ve been getting saltwater splashing inside the rear of the cowling. When I get it home and flush the motor I find dried salt deposits splashed on and around the fuel pump and rear of the engine. I’ve checked the seals and cowling clasp, they’re good. I’m going to ask the dealer. Other than that, good motor.

Wow beautiful toy u got.. is this four strokes? How heavy is this beast? Tohatsu is it made by suzuki?

@travelingwithrick 3 года назад

@@dennislabrador3554 Tohatsu makes their own motors. They also make motors for mercury, mariner and Nissan.

@zekesspindoctor3566 3 года назад

@@dennislabrador3554 Nissan's out of the motor business I believe. Think all Mercs 20hp and under are just rebranded Tohatsus. Merc thinks its name is worth a few hundred more bucks. Just bought a new 8hp Tohatsu for my 14 ft. jon boat - hope to get on the water soon.

@guacostacos4390 4 года назад

Is there any 9.9hp or 9.8hp outboards under 1000$

Yes cheaply made Chinese motors but not worth the hassle, if you can stretch to a tohatsu and look after it it will never let you down.
