Tohatsu 140 HP Outboard Motor MFS140A ETL ETUL

Tohatsu MFS140A ETL ETUL 4-stroke outboard motor

Unique and industry-first 4-2-1 Performance Tuned exhaust manifold is designed to maximize torque and acceleration performance at low RPM. Best in class torque to displacement ratio provides excellent performance for all types of boats, from light to heavy weight, pleasure or commercial use. In certain boat applications the MFS140A will perform comparable to heavier 150hp outboards weighing as much as 50kg more.
This engine is also easier to install due to its lower weight.

• With the Protagon 20 with a boat weight of 850 kilograms you sail with a 140 hp outboard motor at a maximum speed of 63 kilometers per hour.
• With the Waterspoor 717 tender with a boat weight of 1,750 kilograms, you can sail with a 140 hp outboard motor at a maximum speed of 55 kilometers per hour.
• With the Corsiva 750 tender 175PK you sail with a 140 hp outboard engine with a maximum speed of 55 kilometers per hour. And with 8 people more than 45 kilometers per hour.

Where the competition supplies a 1.8 liter engine, the Tohaotsu 140 hp has a 2 liter engine.

The MFS140A is designed with Simpliq™ technology and features a SOHC-4V design. The spark plugs are strategically placed in the center of each combustion chamber for the most efficient combustion with optimum heat conduction, resulting in strong operation and fuel efficiency.

As a rule of thumb, for fast boats you need 1 hp for 10 to 20 kilograms of total weight. Based on this, this outboard motor is suitable for 1 ton to 3 tons of total weight.
For displacement boats, 1 hp per 150 to 200 kilograms is sufficient; the engine is then adequate for 21 to 28 tons of total weight.

• Trim meter

Trim gauge (2" diameter) displays engine angle for optimum performance and efficiency. Features domed lens to minimize glare in direct sunlight, fog and scratch resistant coating, and chrome bezel.

 

• Tachometer

The 7,000 rpm tachometer (10 cm diameter) has a chrome ring and is illuminated for good visibility in the dark. Features a domed lens to minimize glare in direct sunlight and a fog and scratch resistant coating.

The tachometer informs the operator of potential problems such as low oil pressure, low battery and overheating via built-in warning lights.

Standard features include:
• Variable idle system to adjust idle speed from 650 to 850, in 50 rpm steps, for better control of the towline
• Low gear ratio (2.08:1) provides low torque and better peak performance
• Fresh water rinsing System designed to make routine rinsing easier

• The transom height of the boat determines the outboard motor's shaft length. Measure from the point where the motor is attached to the bottom. Is the transom height around 43 centimetres? Then you need a short shaft. For a length of 51 centimetres, it is best to go for a long shaft. You need an extra long shaft for a length of 63 centimetres.

• Inclusive :
  • standard vertical mounting panel without remote control (optional) with tachometer, trim meter, wiring harness with ignition switch and dead man's switch, communication cable kit (part number 3ZG-84556-0)
    • or on request: remote control with power trim: side mounting switch box with mounting kit, tachometer, trim meter, wiring harness with ignition switch and dead man's switch, communication cable kit (part number 3ZG-84555-0).
• Excluding : propeller, fuel tank and starter battery , engine oil and delivery inspection.
  
  
• Propeller

Surcharge 419,-. Aluminum propeller with 3 blades and hub kit (connection between the propeller and the propeller shaft).

Available propeller sizes: 11 pitch (duel power trust) Article number 3HKB64523-0, 15 pitch 3HKB64532-0, 17 pitch 3HKB64536-0, 19 pitch 3HKB64541-0 (most commonly supplied), 21 pitch 3HKB64545-0.

Choose a lower pitch for heavier boats: higher acceleration (for water skiing/wakeboarding). Higher pitch for lighter boats: higher speed.

If the RPM is too low at full throttle, a smaller pitch can provide a higher top speed and acceleration. 1 pitch size provides a difference of about 200 to 300 RPM. NB: Choosing too low a pitch may result in exceeding the maximum speed and thus causing engine damage.

You can also achieve more pulling power and more revolutions with a larger diameter, and less pulling power and more revolutions with a smaller diameter.

Basics of ease of use and reliability

FEATURES

4-2-1 Performance Tuned Exhaust
Isometric Aggregate Exhaust Manifold "4-2-1 Performance Tuned Exhaust" maximizes torque and acceleration performance. This unique design is an industry first and is only found on Tohatsu outboards. By designing each exhaust passage to be the same length, merging the exhaust from each cylinder creates additional suction that helps pull the exhaust out of the engine. This completely eliminates the possibility of exhaust interference and dramatically improves performance. See video on this page.

Excellent couple
4-2-1 Performance Tuned exhaust with the highest torque output that gets you on plane quicker and to top speed faster than any competitor.

**Data based on research conducted and collected by Tohatsu Engineering Department

Superior durability and optimized weight
For high durability and weight reduction, Tohatsu has optimized each relatively heavy part such as cylinder head, exhaust manifold, engine base, oil pan, lower unit, etc. Also, a special anodizing process has been used on all major aluminum components for longer engine life.

Excellent fuel efficiency
MFS75/90/100/115 features a unique SOHC-4V design in its class, where competitors are either SOHC-2V or DOHC-4V. Spark plugs are strategically placed in the center of each combustion chamber for the most efficient combustion with optimum heat conduction, resulting in strong operation and fuel efficiency.

Silent engine
With its equal length intake manifold, 4-2-1 Performance Tuned exhaust and precision-tuned ECU, the MFS75/90/100/115 delivers an exciting, performance-focused engine note. Sounds also bounce off each other within the large capacity Idle Port to dampen the exhaust flow, contributing to the lowest idle noise.

Agility
With its refined ECU programming, the MFS75/90/100/115 is designed to improve acceleration when needed to get the boat on plane quicker. When you open the throttle too wide, the ECU recognizes this and fires all four cylinders simultaneously. At the same time, the ECU optimizes and delivers sufficient air and fuel, making the air/fuel mixture more suitable for quick acceleration to generate higher torque. The higher the torque, the stronger the acceleration you get, resulting in improved hole shots and therefore quicker planing. (Click here) Also, the upper and lower mounts and gearbox have been optimized for direct steering response and maneuverability and greater stability.

Multifunction joystick with PTT switch on the handle
Multi-function tiller handle is an excellent choice for commercial use. It has an ergonomically designed large shift lever on the front and a longer throttle grip with a PTT (Power Trim & Tilt) switch on the end of the handle for easier control and maneuverability. To balance different wind and current conditions, the Variable Idling System allows the user to select the best idle speed from 5 different RPM ranges by simply pressing the key switch.
