Motor Problems | Hangkai Carburetor Repair | Ep 36

[@alfito332]

Good job I starting in boats I bought a dinghy saturn 10’ I need help to decide between hangkai 6.5 and tohatsu 6hp For 1 or 2 people onboard Only cons is tohatsu is to expensive for my budget Help will be appreciated

[@solitudeandsailing]

Tohatsu is a better quality motor. My budget was also why I went the lesser priced one… I bought mine on Amazon. It’s 2 years old and needs to be repainted. I use it in salt water and tilt of out of the water but the paint quality is just not durable… kind of sacrificing quality over cost. Hope this helps

[@stephengalvan7722]

Definitely need new impeller

[@solitudeandsailing]

The motor did come with a replacement. So that is a plus. Only think is the pick up is not great. So more water above the cavitation plate was needed in the bucket.

I saw the same thing I have the same motor it supposed to spit water out constantly

[@bossfishsd3769]

this is 4 stroke right?

[@solitudeandsailing]

Yes. This one is a 4 stroke… I have the Hangkai 6hp 2 stroke also.

[@solitudeandsailing]

Any suggestions?

[@bossfishsd3769]

I’m considering getting this but I'm trying to figure out what motor it is a clone of so i can get parts if needed…. it sounds like its yamaha…

[@solitudeandsailing]

@@bossfishsd3769 I think it’s a clone of Tohatsu outboards. When I searched for replacement carbs the Yamaha came up as one but as you can see it was not an exact fit.

Looks like you need a new water pump

мотора нет охлаждения, !!!!!!!!!, где струя воды ???????, нельзя так использовать мотор!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@solitudeandsailing]

He said, “There is no cooling of the motor! where is the water jet???????, you can’t use the motor like that!!!!!!” Thank you. The water level in the bucket needed to be a little higher for the jet intake. No worries she didn’t run long in the garage and has been running fine all season.
