Tohatsu 150HP BFT150ALA Outboard Motor

This used Tohatsu BFT150ALA brings inline four-cylinder 150 HP to a 20-inch shaft, remote mechanical steering and electric start included as standard equipment. Variable valve timing This engine uses variable intake valve timing paired with a lift control system to broaden the torque curve rather than tune for a single RPM band. Displacing 2354cc with EFI, full throttle on this engine falls between 5000 and 6000 RPM. Buying used Ask about hours and service history before ordering, since wear and cosmetic condition on a used motor will not match a new unit. Tohatsu lists this model at 478 lbs and backs it with a five-year warranty term; weigh that against the cost of a new BFT150ALA when deciding whether the savings are worth the hours already on the clock. Fit notes This 20-inch shaft is sized for boats with a typical transom height in the 150 HP class; a boat that has not carried a 150 HP Tohatsu before should have its transom measured against this figure first. Inline four-cylinder engines like this one are the standard-rotation option, so pair it accordingly if the boat is rigged for a single engine. Common questions Is this a counter-rotating model? No, this is a standard-rotation BFT150ALA. What is the warranty term? Five years, as listed for this model, the same term Tohatsu applies across the BFT150 range.
