This video will pretty show you everything there is to know about servicing your Tohatsu / Mercury / Nissan / Yamaha outboard motor. I go through it all from the fuel filter to pulling the leg off and replacing the impeller. I think they are all pretty much all the same from 2hp, 3.5hp, 4hp, 5hp, 6hp 8hp 9.9hp etc… Obviously some models have a built in fuel tank which will look slightly different inside.
0:10 – Replacing motor oil
0:38 – The Carburetor
2:09 – Fuel Filter
2:18 – Gear Oil
2:36 – Anode
2:51 – Propeller
3:11 – Removing the leg & impeller
5:31 – Spark plug
Hope this helps anyone out there to browse through, as a quick reference, stop and pause as you go along its all very straight forward, keep in mind I’m no mechanic, just a full time liveaboard on my Beneteau Oceanis 46 sailing around the world.
Removing the leg and putting it back on is easier than you think or might read, don’t stress to much, just take your time and line up all the poles and take you’re time trying to get it all in the right position and check if the gears work before screwing it tight eg fwd, neutral, reverse etc and adjust and wiggle around until you get it all right, then tighten the bolts and bobs your uncle!
*** I just realised I forgot to show you the fuel pump, this is very simple also, just unbolt 2 screws. It should be a little square box between the fuel filter and Carby. You can remove this and unscrew to carefully peel back the rubber diaphragm and pull it apart to clean if needed. Just be careful not to puncture anything or break it.
