The Tohatsu MFS9.8CEPTUL represents the pinnacle of small outboard technology, featuring revolutionary battery-less Electronic Fuel Injection that delivers precise fuel management without requiring a separate battery system. This sophisticated two-cylinder, four-stroke engine produces 9.8 horsepower with exceptional efficiency, consuming just 1.05 gallons per hour at wide-open throttle while maintaining smooth, quiet operation throughout its 5,300-6,200 RPM range.

Electric start convenience eliminates manual pulling, providing reliable ignition with simple push-button operation. The remote steering compatibility makes this engine perfect for center console boats and larger vessels where helm-mounted controls are preferred. The integrated power trim & tilt system allows precise boat attitude adjustment from the helm, optimizing performance for varying load conditions, shallow water navigation, and trailering convenience.

With its 25-inch shaft length, the MFS9.8CEPTUL accommodates higher transom boats, pontoons, and specialty applications where extended clearance is essential. At 106 pounds, this engine balances substantial features with manageable weight. The compact 12.8 cubic inches of displacement from its twin-cylinder design provides excellent power-to-weight ratio with minimal vibration.

Advanced engineering features include a 2.08:1 gear reduction ratio for optimal thrust characteristics and an 84-watt alternator that reliably charges onboard electronics. The trochoid pump lubrication system ensures consistent oil circulation, while electronically advanced ignition timing optimizes performance and fuel efficiency across all operating conditions. EPA and CARB 3-Star emissions compliance demonstrates environmental responsibility without compromising performance.

The groundbreaking battery-less EFI technology eliminates complexity associated with traditional fuel injection systems while providing superior throttle response and fuel economy. This innovation represents Tohatsu’s commitment to making advanced technology accessible in smaller displacement engines.

Perfect for fishing boats, pontoons, and specialty watercraft requiring extended shaft length and premium features, the MFS9.8CEPTUL excels where reliable power, convenience, and precise control are paramount. This engine embodies Tohatsu’s philosophy of dependable design enhanced by cutting-edge technology, built for demanding marine conditions with the quality that has made Tohatsu the trusted choice for discerning boaters worldwide since 1956.
