Default Speaking of outboards - any comments on the Nissan/Tohatsu 3.5 hp 2 stroke?

Bad news?
Cheap place to buy it?


I have a 9.9Hp Nissan. It gets maybe 30 hours of use a year, and I have had
it about 10 years. I have never done anything to it. Not even changed a
plug. It usually starts the first pull. It has been a great motor.

I had a 5 hp Nissan 2 stroke which was built by Tohatsu. Best outboard I
ever owned. Not a single problem, always started on first pull, or second
after being winterized over a few months. When I upgraded, they didn't make
a 2 stroke at 25hp, so I had to get a Yamaha. Second choice, but it works
well too, but not as good as the Nissan/Tohatsu.

the only negative I have to say about the nissan/tohatsu is that parts can be
difficult away from the us.

We spun a prop in the bahamas and to get a spare for our 9.8 it cost 200.00 to
have one shipped in.

My fault for not having a spare.
