[read more]Discover the 2023 Tohatsu MFS40 L—an outboard engine that sets a new standard for lightweight performance and fuel efficiency.
This four‑stroke, 40‑hp motor is engineered to be the lightest in its class with an initial weight of just 209 lbs. The result? A nimble power unit that delivers strong thrust while keeping your boat’s overall displacement low.
Key technology includes electronic fuel injection and a microcomputer‑programmed ignition system, giving you instant throttle response, better hours, and smoother operation on the water. An integrated high‑output 21 amp alternator ensures reliable battery charging for all onboard accessories.
The MFS40 is designed with user convenience in mind: an adjustable steering friction and trim tab reduce effort when navigating; power trim and tilt make handling easier; a built‑in freshwater flushing system simplifies routine maintenance. Variable idle control (650–950 rpm) lets you fine‑tune engine speed for optimal performance.
Durability is bolstered by features such as through‑prop exhaust for quieter running, an oil pump driven by the camshaft, and stainless steel water‑pump housing liners that resist corrosion. Safety systems—including low‑oil pressure warnings (visual & audible), overheat alerts, start‑in‑gear protection, a safety lanyard, and an over‑rev limiter—ensure peace of mind on every trip.
Available in 15″ or 20″ shaft lengths and two striking colors—Aqua Marine Blue and Beluga White—the MFS40 offers unmatched versatility for work, leisure, or creating lasting memories aboard your vessel.
