I am in the market for a new Outboard, a 40hp long shaft tiller. I have a 20hp Tohatsu that was a gift several years ago and it has been superb, although I haven’t had to do anything to it beyond oil changes in the time I have owned it. I was looking a a Tohatsu 40 but I noticed that, unlike my Evinrudes and Yamahas s over the years, Tohatsu seems kinda weak on repair parts. Evinrude has piles of specialised sealants, greases, parts kits going back decades...all readily available. Yamaha has everything from yamalube to yamabond with a fair supply of parts. I can’t really find much for Tohatsu beyond oil and gear lube? Am I missing something or does a Tohatsu not really support long term with parts and similar?
