Manufacturer Part Number (MPN)
MFS9.9EEPTL
Marine Specialist Insight: The Tohatsu MFS9.9EEPTL (MPN MFS9.9EEPTL) is the most feature-rich motor in the portable 10hp class. By integrating Power Tilt and Electric Start into the 20-inch long shaft platform, Tohatsu has created the ultimate auxiliary engine for sailboats and high-transom fishing boats. Powered by Battery-Less Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI), this motor eliminates the common maintenance headaches of small carburetors, delivering smooth idling and instant throttle response even after long periods of storage.
Push-Button Convenience Meets EFI Efficiency
The Tohatsu MFS9.9EEPTL (MPN: MFS9.9EEPTL) is designed for boaters who prioritize ease of use and reliability. The 333cc twin-cylinder engine provides high-torque performance that easily pushes heavy tenders or sailboats. The standout feature is the integrated Power Tilt, allowing you to raise or lower the engine from the tiller handle—perfect for protecting your motor in shallow water or while moored.
This model features Tohatsu’s multi-function tiller handle, placing the tilt switch, gear shift, and throttle friction control all within a single ergonomic reach. Because it utilizes a battery-less EFI system, you get the benefits of modern fuel injection—like automatic altitude compensation and easy cold starts—without being 100% dependent on a battery for engine operation. With a high-output 12A charging system, it’s the ideal choice for boats with onboard electronics.
