    MFS6CS SailPro tilt mechanism problem

    I just replaced the lower unit w/ a complete assembly from Tohatsu. When tilting the motor up the shift rod no longer contacts the tilt mechanism flat surface; it slides off and goes "inside" the opening causing a lot of noise when turning the motor, not to mention that when lowing the unit it...

    2014 Sailpro shifting problem

    All of a sudden it has become very difficult to move the shift left in either direction. If I apply a reasonable strong force it will move, albeit begrudgingly. I took the hood off and it appears that the linkage that is visible is working. What should I be looking at / be concerned about?

    Nissan NS5B gear shift handle question

    My motor stand tipped over and my outboard landed on the gear shift handle, shattering it into a hundred pieces. Replacement looks like it could be complicated; could you give me an idea of what replacing it involves?

    Tohatsu Sailpro tiller arm

    Is there any way to adjust the friction on the arm movement? Mine will only stay in a vertical position; any other position it “falls down” where it will jam against the stern and preventing me from turning the motor unless I pick it up. Kind of a pain when maneuvering in tight quarters.

    Nissan NSF5BS fuel pump question

    This is a 2006 model, I am the 3rd owner. Useage appeared to be light to moderate, based on overall condition. I changed the carburetor last year to make it a 6hp. I'm thinking about replacing the 11 yr old fuel pump out proactively, as I had a fuel pump failure on a previous tohatsu motor at...

    2006 Nissan 5hp 4 stroke idle speed

    When the engine has run for 5 minutes or so and then I shift to neutral, the idle speed is "normal" for about 10 seconds and then it starts to rev up. I don't have a tachometer to determine exactly how much it revs up, but it is high enough where the transmission doesn't sound "happy" when I...
