Tohatsu 20HP | MFS20EEPL

The Tohatsu MFS20EEPL switches from tiller to remote mechanical steering on the 20 hp EFI platform, with electric start, a 20-inch shaft, and a weight of 104 lbs. Remote steering routes throttle and steering cables to a helm control head rather than keeping them at the motor. Remote steering changes what's in the box Being a remote control model, it skips a sidemount remote entirely, and the fuel tank plus its line are separate purchases rather than items in the crate; whatever you buy for those needs to match your boat's existing control run. Confirm your control head and cable length before ordering, since remote-steer hardware isn't universal across boats. Engine and equipment Open the box and you'll find the propeller, the steering arm, and the charging system packed together; a small tool kit rides separately, with the cutoff cord and the manual bagged alongside it. This two-cylinder, 333cc EFI engine's top end reaches 6,100 rpm, idling up from around 5,400. Q: Does this come with a fuel tank? No, the fuel tank and line are sold separately for remote-steer models, since they need to fit the boat rather than the motor. Tohatsu's 5-year warranty applies to the MFS20EEPL. Have your boat's remote cable run measured ahead of time, since ordering the wrong length for the sidemount remote is one of the more common fitment mistakes on a console boat.
