Tohatsu 5 HP Tiller Propane Outboard Motor – MFS5LPG – 2023

Thanks to Tohatsu’s 5 HP Propane / Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) outboard, sailors are no longer forced to carry gasoline on board. The 5 HP LPG comes equipped with a fuel line that will connect to any standard North American propane tank. This innovative LPG outboard will run for a full 5 hours at WOT on a single 11 lbs propane tank, without sacrificing performance.

Tohatsu’s Propane outboard is equipped with a Safety Fuel Shut Off Valve which keeps propane fuel from continuously flowing when the engine is not in use. Plus, since the 5 HP LPG does not require ethanol or gas, this propane outboard requires almost zero maintenance on fuel related components.

This portable best-seller has been upgraded with newly designed top and bottom cowls based on Tohatsu Design Philosophy for Marine Products with ergonomically designed front and back carrying handles.

In addition, you can now store your engine in 3 different positions without worrying about oil spillage.
