Yamaha 2017 Yamaha F20 LEA Outboard Motor

Twenty horsepower from a 362cc two-cylinder SOHC block drives this F20 LEA, mounted on a 20-inch shaft, with manual or electric starting and a dry weight of 117 lbs. Shared engineering across the F20 line Bolt pattern for the transom mount spaces out at 28.6 inches, drive reduces through a 2.08:1 gear set across forward, neutral and reverse, compression is rated 9.3:1, and the four-stop tilt bracket runs from 67 up to 71 degrees. Steering swings up to 45 degrees from center each direction, while fuel comes through a single carburetor working together with CDI microcomputer ignition. One detail worth flagging: the warranty terms listed for this engine carve out a shorter period specifically for a jet pump assembly, which suggests a jet lower unit exists somewhere in this engine family; confirm the exact configuration of this particular unit with us before ordering. Buyers moving up from a smaller portable to this 20 hp block often notice the extra displacement on plane with a loaded boat, even though the shaft and mounting hardware carry over largely unchanged from lighter engines in the same family. Questions buyers ask What fuel does it run on? Regular unleaded gasoline, 87 octane at minimum. What's the warranty? 3-year pleasure and 3-year government coverage, 1-year commercial, as Yamaha lists it. What's the oil capacity? The tank holds 1.8 liters with the filter installed and 1.6 liters without.
