Description
Run the Honda BF150DLDA 150HP Outboard on a compatible bay boat or sport hull when a 20-inch transom needs iST digital control and 150 horsepower. Its 2,354 cc inline four-cylinder DOHC engine uses 16 valves and VTEC technology, producing 150 HP at 5,500 RPM. Honda BF150DLDA is a Grand Prix White 4-stroke outboard with Programmed Fuel Injection, electric starting, Intelligent Shift and Throttle, and Power Trim & Tilt. The 20-inch long shaft suits standard long-transom installations.
The 472-lb dry weight should be included in the boat’s transom, repower, and balance calculations. Its 5,000–6,000 RPM full-throttle range provides a reference for propeller selection, while the 2.14:1 gear ratio supports standard forward, neutral, and reverse operation. The 40-amp alternator supplies 30 charging amps for compatible displays, pumps, lighting, and other accessories. Engine oil capacity is listed at 6.7 L with filter, while gearcase service should follow the applicable Honda documentation.
