    2012 Suzuki 150 stalls at idle

    I have a 2012 Suzuki 150 with about 600 hours, indoor stored and in great shape for a salt water engine. We've had it since 2018 and it has always run fine. Yesterday, backed the engine into the water at the ramp, fired it up, backed down a bit more and the boat came off the trailer with a bit...

    Tohatsu 60 alarm sounds, shuts down

    I have a high-thrust Tohatsu 60 that I bought new in 2014. This was when they merged with Honda, so it's not one of the TLDI two stroke engines. Remove the motor cover and the valve cover says HONDA in big letters, so it's a Tohonda. It's on a pontoon boat. The other day after cruising for a...

    Tohatsu BFW60A tilt pin

    I have a Tohonda BFW60A that I bought in 2014 and I need a tilt pin. Without cluelessly bumbling through a 1,000 page parts catalog, how do I buy one?

    Tohonda 60 Rigging: ECU vs VHF?

    I just bought a new Honda 60 with a Tohatsu paint job and noticed in the rigging manual that you're not supposed to put a VHF radio, antenna, or antenna wire near to the engine controls and tachometer. I may not be able to get the recommended separation. What happens when a VHF component is too...

    2000-2001 Yamaha 70 - Unprecedented Problems

    I bought an old Yamaha 70 for my 15' Boston Whaler. It starts up fine, but that's about the end of things it does fine. When accellerating, just as the boat gets on plane, there is a sudden (like a switch was thrown) loss of power. If I keep advancing the throttle, it will go on and plane...

    2006 Tohatsu 5 hp - fuel bubbling out top of carburetor

    I have a 2006 Tohatsu 5 hp that came with a small sailboat that was given to me. It appears to have very low hours and is almost free of corrosion. I know it has sat around for at least the last couple of years, and probably some time before that. I checked the oil and it was a bit low so I...

    Mystery Part from 1986 Evinrude 15

    I was working on my 1986 Evinrude 15 and found this part laying down under the gear shift. Does anyone know what it is and where it is supposed to go? The back story, for those interested: I found this engine on craigslist. The owner said it had been in his family since new and had maybe 10...

    New Yamaha 90 four stroke stalls above idle

    Trying to help out a friend here. He just bought new engines for his whale watching boats, and three out of four are fine. One runs fine at slow speeds, but will only run a minute or less at 3k RPM cruise before it stalls and dies. On other three engines, the bulb in the fuel line behaves...
