5 hp 4 stroke air cooled outboard motor

great experience with this motor

[@Thomas-tf4cm]

Is basically a mower engine with a governor, no water cooling. Will work fine.

[@seanperson2032]

Man I'm getting one of these to put on my inflatable raft for fishing, this looks like a sweet little motor.

[@triumphlearning1280]

I bought 2 solar marine 270 inflatables & 2 4hp 4-strokes to fish in saltwater. I'll check into safely getting more power out of them. Really only 1 speed

[@southernexposure123]

The limit lever is called a governor. There's a way to bend the governor to get full speed with the throttle.

Sounds like a lawmaker mower❤

Hello, i read a lot of comments on reddit that Say that, if you want to remove the Governor, you must change a lot of things: reinforced valve springs, reinforced connecting rod etc etc. Is It true in your opinion?

[@ThatDudeHandy]

@@TheProtoss24 yeah it's most likely true so I left it as is

Put a prop on a weed whacker and a handle ! Minn Kota 2 prop works just fine and use stainless steel bolts and nuts, Make sure the prop end has grease fitting and grease eit every use !

[@henryahlers9135]

I recently bought one of these little motors. What gear oil did you put in the prop crank case? Also how do you transport your motor? Do you leave it on the boat or do you lay it down in the pickup?

[@ThatDudeHandy]

when i go out, i lay it down in my car, but at my house i have a stand

[@PainterD54]

I used 80/90 weight synthetic gear oil. It will last for years.

[@velimirkolundzija4451]

That sounds like my chainsaw that has about 5 horses and which I paid $110, what more since the saw has a power transmission lane I could make it such a boat briber for the same money. And as far as money is concerned, I paid a Honda 7.5 horse 10 years old and it works perfectly.

i rather have a regular 5 hp outboard which i have a 1984(not sure if its 1988) nissan 5hp 2t

[@krishkrish9258]

How many cost

[@jbreefer45]

80cc I'm not sure is 5hp, because I have a Briggs and Stratton lawnmower and the engine is 196cc. 5.5hp

[@ThatDudeHandy]

possible

[@tomrc4328]

You're 196cc is also 4 stroke, this one is 2 stroke. 2 stroke will typically put out twice the HP than the same sized 4 stroke. So it could be around 5hp.

[@seanperson2032]

@@tomrc4328 nah this little outboard is a 4 stroke as well.

[@bombinni26]

79cc=3hp 4stroke,16kg and 196cc=5hp 4stroke, 28kg,224cc=6hp/9hp 4stroke,30kg

[@cm5838]

@@bombinni26you cannot judge horse power by displacement alone, the Chinese are generous with their ratings, take the predator 212cc , rated at 6.5 hp but slightly less power than the Honda gx160cc 5 hp that it clones. There is so much more goes into hp, like compression ratio, port size, carburetor jetting and even muffler design. This is a mower engine, a clone of a Honda gcv by the looks of it, that original hp rating included the blade which acts as a sort of flywheel and would cause it to rate a higher hp. If it says 4 I’d bank on 2.5 or 3 . But it looks like a good little engine for what it is.

they have grovement controls on motor stop it from revving at full thotter it rev up to 3k rpm unset of 6k rpm u can get away with it by bending adjustment

[@stanleybest8833]

The limiter is so you can have a rental boat.

[@ThatDudeHandy]

lol wth

[@DingDangg]

What kind of boat do you have and is it steady?

[@ThatDudeHandy]

west marine dinghy, its the tri hull one and its not bad

[@MrStevegibb]

The irony is this thing is probably going to be more reliable than any of the fancy 5hp watercooled outboards. I don't know who came up with the idea of using seawater to water cool outboards but they need slapped it makes them extremely unreliable and fussy to maintain.

[@Eco.boost2.7]

They came up with the idea because coolant is deadly to anything that is living. Smaller motors don’t really need to be water cooled but since they have those fancy covers on them they would be very unreliable if they weren’t water cooled. The large outboards definitely need to be water cooled do to how hot they run.

[@thckitchen434]

How is it holding up?

[@ThatDudeHandy]

Reliable

[@thckitchen434]

@@ThatDudeHandy thanks

[@thomasmagee7114]

Did you ever bend the governor bar so you could get full throttle? And if so have you had any issues because of it? I’m Considering buying this unit on Amazon. But another review on the item said same thing as you and he adjusted the governor bar. Thanks

[@observer5394]

so you can basically paddle the vessel faster than the motor can

[@seanperson2032]

Lol show me what body builder you hired to paddle a John boat or other similar small, non-kayak boat to 4+mph

[@alexatkinson6548]

@@seanperson2032 I have a similar motor, topped out at about 6, and I’ve had kayakers that were younger keep up with me. The benefit is not moving a muscle to get the same speed.

[@seanperson2032]

@ALEX ATKINSON kayaker's I'd believe, they are small narrow V hulled and designed to be paddled. But a flat bottom John boat? No way you're paddling that faster than 4mph.

[@91Bronco]

Yeah just need a zip tie and you can bypass the governor and it'll be way better

[@mrsuarez430]

Nice for what it is personally vid rather get an old Johnson 15 or yammy 15 two stroke you can get one for under 300 more or less what thats worth new

[@ThatDudeHandy]

that’s true lol

[@philbarrows424]

I will buy a Yammy 15 for $300 from you any day of the week.

[@wymple09]

I cruise market place on FB constantly. There are zero good small outboards for 300 bucks. Those are parts motors or have serious issues.
