Tohatsu MFS30CETL 30HP Power Tilt 20″ Shaft Outboard Motor
Description
Tohatsu 30HP MFS30CETL EFI Power Tilt Long
Technology focused and utilizing a 500cc three-cylinder engine family, the Tohatsu 30HP MFS30CETL serves as a high-torque solution for US boaters requiring a prop-rated propulsion unit with superior thermal stability. This 30HP four-stroke technology utilizes battery-less Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) to minimize internal friction and maximize hole-shot performance for high-transom skiffs and pontoon tenders. The 20-inch long shaft design provides an optimized center of gravity, while the electric start and motorized power tilt system ensure immediate, reliable ignition across diverse inland and coastal environments.
Operational longevity of the MFS30CETL model is secured through a specialized water-cooled system featuring a zinc-coated internal water passage to maintain internal cleanliness. To facilitate easy after-storage starts, the unit employs a pressurized fuel induction system paired with a 180W high-output alternator, while the Tohatsu High-Grade Marine Alloy utilizes a multi-layer finish to mitigate oxidation in high-salinity waters. With a 100-hour service interval and remote throttle synchronization, this fuel-efficient outboard provides superior ownership value for boaters seeking a reliable, low-emission engine with specialized transom heights.
