[QUOTE="turbotodd, post: 388445, member: 7376"] Not being familar with the technical aspects of that motor (which is a Tohatsu, BTW), how often do they call for a valve adjustment? I'd say, oil & filter once every 20 hours or so (which is about once a year for most recreational boaters), new set of plugs once a year (they're cheap...), new impeller and water pump housing inspection once a year, and whatever they call for on a valve adjustment. Aside from valve adjustment, with the right tools and some know-how, the rest of it takes less than an hour generally speaking. [/QUOTE]
