Worth every Penny and more! I’ve had the Hangkai 4T model for four years now and it’s never once let me down. 👍🏻👍🏻

I have one of those motors, and I have been using it for years on my pontoon boat. I plumbed in a secondary gas tank on mine and it draws the gas in as I go so there is never a need to stop and fuel. That was the biggest pain ever since the tank on the motor is tiny. I have a video about it on my channel, however, it is in Russian. If you would like I can make a video about how I made up a secondary jerry can gas tank. There is no electricity involved it just works on suction, and it works awesome!!

I’ve always said to myself “ Who buys these things”... My questions has been answered! The smirk on your face during the 1st launch was “Priceless” “Liked and subscribed” thanks for the post

Thanks for the review man he did a great job showing me everything I wanted to see sweet boat

Doing a reach around while at sea... now that's a true sailor!

Thank you for the time and effort to make this video

great video mate, thanks for covering all the bases, neato lil thing ill look into one, reminds me of an old tanaka 1.5

Loved your explanation and video

Thank you. Helpful to make decision. It’ll meet my needs. 😁

Good video and review. Thanks!

nice review mate... its easy to install and carry... i wish to have 1 soon

Good to have a review in English thumbs up from Scotland

Great review! Thank you!

thanks for the review

As far as the choke, [ | ] would be open, [ -- ] would be closed. Close it to start the engine cold, open it after a minute or two. I do miss AUS, I was stationed on the RAAF base in Darwin, NT when I was in the USMC back in '93. Loved it there.

Well after a year, how do you like the little varmint? Has it lasted? It sounds like you are being chased by a swarm of angry bees.

loved this review!

I put this exact same motor on my kayak mounted between the outrigger and the kayak. I cut shortened and welded the shaft around 7'' shorter as it was way to long for what I needed. I also put a custom made exhaust extension that points the exhaust out and away from your ears, as you mentioned it is damn noisy. Half of the trouble with this little motor is, the plastic propeller flexes, you can upgrade the propeller to a cast aluminium one for under $30.00 and you will get a little more speed, around 15 kls ph top speed. The motor is very reliable but sucks a lot of juice, on a calm day out in the kayak I will only get around two kilometers out of a tank. This little motor is great for a kayak as it's light, a proper 2 to 4hp outboard motor is way to heavy for my kayak and this no brand is 5 times cheaper.

thanks for sharing, mate.

Liked it. I have almost the same motor. Hello from Turkiye.

I'd put a quieter muffler on it, but it looks good. Good vid.

Nice job

Parabéns pelo seu vídeo. Muito boa a demonstração do motor. Comprei um aqui no Brasil e fiquei muito satisfeito com ele. Uso no meu caiaque Hunter Fishing.

I opted for the 2 stroke wet version because the exhaust goes down under the waterline so it’s significantly quieter.. not fast by any means but it’ll do the job

Помощник солнца !

Whipper snipper is a new one for me. I've heard weed wacker or weed whipper. I've always been partial to edge trimmer, but I'm adopting Whipper sniper from now on.

I have a 3hp long-tail version of this waiting for me to weld up a boat from three 44g drums. As you say, time will tell. If I need more power, I'll mount two 3hp long-tails in parallel.😂

Thanks fornthe review Simon , im in newcastle nsw ,thinking of buying this motor for a canoe , how has yours held up?

شكرا عالتوضيح المفيد جدا.تحياتي من الجزائر

Thank you!, Very handy!

So peaceful . . .

Thanks for posting this, I've been looking for a small setup for my canoe, and I've seen the lower ends on sale for around 58$ and I've definitely got a trimmer engine waiting. Seems like for me it'd be a perfect fit, thanks!

Nice bro 👍

Super videó!!!

Ótimo vídeo vou comprar um motor desse!

I see a design flaw already the exhaust is pointing straight up in the Run position so if you're caught in the rain or you leave it outside in the rain your exhaust will fill with water into your piston you get the idea.

The motor beats the hell out of rowing for $200.Some earplugs would make it quieter.

Nice video

Great review thanks. Go OZ

That's the same engine/clutch assembly I have on my post hole auger and it has worked flawlessly for 10 years. Just run the gas out of it at the end of the season so the carb doesn't get gummy.

Good honest clear review you pays your money and takes your choice Noisy whipper but very cheap price Or pay lot more for dearer heavier pukka outboard half way house would be honda 2.3hp light noisy ish Light but hi price but easy to lift to from tender to mothership..

Nice info here. Thanks. I suppose that this would be more efficient with a better propeller. (Aluminium)

I was looking at the 1.5 HP 4 stroke Engine from the same people for the extra $50 although it says it doesn't go as fast I think it will be good for the noise level and less using of fuel. I'm going to make a mount for my kayak hopefully it is not a regretful buy.

amazing

Hi,there are motors make for all sorts of applications.If you think it works for you then it's a great buy.

Stihl will last many years I know that sound only brand I used when I had my lawn service.

Great kayak for the price. Others spent 3x the price to get exactly what I have in this floater.

Nice boat

I would put a more quiet exaust and point it downwards so when it rain I’m ok

Thank you. New enggine

Great review bud! We call wippet snippers, weed eaters here in the USA.

nice machine

Very nice ... but can you add another crop to go back? A brass tube should be placed in the form of an elbow in the exhaust area to protect your face from the heat and smoke. Very nice, my hands. I hope to get this but I am now in Saudi Arabia.

honnestly i like it

Good. It has smoke. Not smoking scares me with these!

Good video mate but one recommendation would be to let the brand new engine warm up a little before you start cranking on the throttle

Please let us know your first breakdown on this outboard. Thanks in advance.

Looks nice for the price.

SO CUTE

Buen video, gracias

That nice for once spot to work fish that can get into water close. Don't need speed boat fishing.

neat but way to loud maybe u can set up exaust to go under the water to reduce noise,may interfere with ur 180 stearing but be worth it i think cut an weld up pipe an baffles to drop in the under water line

I purchased this motor new, this is not a salt water motor to begin with, a week after having it the throttle cable broke, one of the mounting brackets broke and the exhaust came loose after four hours of use.

Can see a good reason for the speed your able to obtain, I think it has alot more to do with your aerodynamic hair cut. I'm certain should you of removed you sunnys you would gain more speed. Over all great presentation, definitely good value for money.

of course this is a large weed whacker motor, with a bicycle twist grip control, and an OB lower unit. Tanaka made an even smaller OB ( 30 cc) using what was then a bicycle motor ( bike bug) in the 70's. The noise is opressive.. but it works.

it would probably do really well on a canoe of you can find some way of mounting it

You gone run all the fish off with that bumble bee mate LOL

We race these motors but you need to remove the air cleaner & spark arrestor from the exhaust & run it on 100:1. We get an extra 1/2 a knot.

Good review. What is the initial oil ratio for the engine.

And then I swapped my 4stoke Weed Wacker engine and now it’s quiet and good fuel economy

Wow nice invinsion

Great video! Did it last long?

You should built so the exhaust goes down in the water near the propeller then the noise gets smaller

how hard is it to replace the propeller and are they readily available, is there a sheer pin or dose it rely on the clutch as a safety, Victor lawn mower years back made two styles of outboard motors, using the good old reliable two stroke motor, they had a propeller unit, and they also had a pump jet unit, the propeller version would push a 14" bond wood boat a little faster than rowing, probably 5 knots at best. I would like to see a 10 hour review, not sure how a free running motor will last whilst under continual load, as it is when pushing through water. good video hope to see more.

Quite handy. I wonder if this is any good for an inflatable Kayak.

Okay .very good

cheers mate ! great vid. Patonga?

I have the same one still runs but for all cable rusted super pellet didn't go round but then I didn't really maintain it or let and fuel line very weak they leak had to modify mine

Brilliant review. £139 over here, absolute bargain for the price let’s be honest

Sthil, still the best!

Nice 👍

Super engine..We buy it !!👌 Extraordinary performance

Very interesting ... Can you tell me how big that boat is?

thanks for the info. I think that a metal prop would do a better job.

I like that

wondering if a metal prop that has a different pitch, it might go faster.

Run a pipe from motor down in the water ,,,muffler,,, think that help with the noise

Thnks. Please return with durability results.

Nice

Did you add grease behind the propeller? And there should be another spot to add grease as well

Small air cooled 2 strokes hate constant high RPM. I’d be impressed to see how long this engine would last in this sort of application.

Good,thanks.Do you know about scooter muffler,which may install on this motor?Or make underwater exhaust,it will many more silent!

Exhaust outlet should be under the water line.

Need a video on how to silence it

It's closer to 5hp. It's a "Demon" weedwhacker engine, made in Poland. It can easily be replaced by a Honda 4- stroke motor, they' ll fit.

👍👍👍

nice motor itis imposible to have that kind of motor sir because im here in the philippines but ill like that very much sir

I hav a brand new 40HP Yamaha 4 stroke for my 450 inflatable boats... But it way too heavy... Looking for this motor for just fishing in the lake.

I have a eBay purchase 4 stroke, 1.5HP Petrol Power Outboard Engine and mounted on my kayak. Seller says 20km/h with 3 people... I must weight more than 5 people because my kayak was going at 8km/h on full throtle. I use watersnake 24lb with 50ah lithium battery now and it travells at 6km/h. much more peacefull.

I got one but it has different oil engine compartment, do I still need to fix the Gasoline with the T2 like this?
