[QUOTE="The_owl, post: 294071, member: 5672"] From reading online, it appears that Tohatsu makes all of Mercury’s motors 40 hp and less. They also make Suzuki’s lineup from 30 and under. The Tohatsu/Mercury/Suzuki 15 EFI is all the same engine, different stickers. This is probably the motor I’ll go with. Just for conversation, what’s the difference between the 20 hp Four Stroke and the 15 Pro Kicker? Is the torque curve different for some reason? Thanks [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] Watching YouTube videos it seems pretty straight forward - the only thing I haven’t been able to find is tying into the fuel line. How is this done? The power trim and start seems simple - runs some cords to the battery. What about the alternator? The 15 has the bigger output but will it charge the battery its wired too? Do I need anything more for the install, ie, relay or such? Thanks everyone [/QUOTE]
