Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is this model a tiller or remote steer engine?
The 20EPT is a "Remote" model, meaning it is designed to be connected to a steering wheel and a console-mounted remote control box (typically sold separately).
2. Can I still start the engine manually?
Yes. This unit includes a manual recoil starter as a secondary backup, and the EFI system can operate battery-free for emergency starts.
