Tohatsu MFS40AETS 40HP 4-Stroke 15″ Shaft Outboard Motor

Tohatsu 40HP MFS40AETS EFI Power Tilt Short

Technology driven and built upon an 866cc three-cylinder engine family, the Tohatsu 40HP MFS40AETS serves as a high-torque solution for US boaters requiring a prop-rated propulsion unit with superior thermal stability. This 40HP four-stroke technology utilizes a SOHC architecture to maximize hole-shot performance, effectively converting internal combustion into efficient thrust for lightweight aluminum skiffs and racing hulls. The 15-inch short shaft design provides an optimized center of gravity, while the electronic fuel injection and motorized power tilt ensure immediate, reliable ignition across diverse inland and coastal environments.

Operational longevity of the MFS40AETS 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 sophisticated EFI system paired with a 21A high-output alternator for onboard electronics, 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 an adjustable idling speed system, this fuel-efficient outboard provides superior ownership value for boaters seeking high-performance displacement and durability.
