I have never been so dissapointed in a product as with my E-TEC 150 HP Engine. I saw all the advertisements on this engine and i was hooked. I saved for a brand new E-tec. Yes I use my boat alot Bui in the 6 years of owning this piece of junk. I had a blown power head, 5, yes five injectors replaced, a starter replaced, water in the lower unit and now I was just towed in again yeterday, my EMM ( engine control module ) was smoking!!!! Yes Evinrude has warranteed most of my repairs but I didn't buy a brand new engine to spend my weekends trailering back to the dealer.
I will be towing boat to dealer next week and will repost how I was treated. This LEMON of an engine should have been replaced. Stand behind your products. 'There is never just one thing wrong with a boat';- Travis McGee, main character in a book series by John D.

Bluewater Bill, thank you for responding, and posting the phone number. I do see that exhaust goes to EMM so maybe that's where smoke issue is coming from.
Reguardless how ever, I still had to be towed in, engine will not run and blows main fuse when you try and start it! I am just so fustrated with this engine, since the reason I bought it was to habe many trouble free enjoytable years on the water. I will first see what my dealer has to say, when I tow it there.
Then I can see what the problem is. Then I will contact Evinrude. 'There is never just one thing wrong with a boat';- Travis McGee, main character in a book series by John D.

Needless to say my warranty ran out in March, i know of 3 times i have missed tournaments or pre-fish time because of engine issues with my e-tec. The first was the cpc (crankshaft postion sensor) and the 2nd was another sensor that kept making my engine shut down. This is by far the biggest issue. Trolled 6 mile back to my truck, took to the dealer and then the bad news came. They orignally quoted me a price of $1,500.00 just for the emm!!!! After begging and pleading with my dealer he called BRP and they said they would cover half the expense of the emm, $800.00 is still a lot of money to spend on a $16,000,00 engine with less than 300 hours on it. I'm grateful for the fact that are helping some, but with travel expense, missing work, non-refundable tournament fee i'll still be out $1,500.00 +.

I would like to start a discussion on the benefits and/or advantages of either the Evinrude Etec or the Tohatsu TLDI has over one another. They are both direct injection motors which is what I want and Im looking at mainly a 40hp or 50hp tiller model.
I should also add that the dealer Im using sells both brands but can get me the 40hp tohatsu for $1000 less then the 40hp Etec and even has a 2006 closeout Tohatsu 50HP tiller for the price of a 40hp at the moment.I had my heart set on the Etec but Im really not sure. The dealer has been around longer then I have and they do full service on both brands.Thanks for any opinions.Mike Krivsky. Re: Evinrude Etec vs Tohatsu TLDIActually the Etec has a much higher profit margin. Price competition in the U.S. Is much more pointed on the Tohatsu engines.
The Etec costs more because BRP expenses the extra years of warranty into the base price of the engine. The standard Etec warranty has a promotion of additional years on it to bring it to seven or you could get one with their normal warranty and get a plasma TV instead.
The TLDI has a 3 + 1 year warranty as standard. I wish Tohatsu would offer a seasonal increase in their warrany too. It's a great gimmick, but Tohatsu doesn't to promotional things. As to more moving parts on the Tohatsu. Yes, it does.One belt that needs to be changed out on an average of once every five years. Dealer network and quality service.Twenty years ago that was an issue in some areas.
But today it's just a repeated myth. Long term no one knows whether or not one will last longer than the other. My own prejudice is that the Tohatsu will based on the last seven years that the TLDI's have been out, but it all honesty the Etec hasn't been out long enough to provide any kind of track record. I guess that means that we will all have to wait five or six years and then revisit the topic of which one is better in the long term. It wouldn't surprise me if the Etec turned out to be just as good. It just doesn't have a history to prove it yet.
