Yamaha said the innovative and compact 40hp engine now boasts a sophisticated fuel injection system for improved fuel efficiency and outstanding power-to-weight performance plus full connectivity to Yamaha's digital control LAN system.
At the heart of the new F40F outboard is Yamaha's electronic multi-point fuel injection system. Yamaha said that combined with an electronically controlled single throttle valve, long intake track manifold and 32-bit electronic control module, the new mid-range 40hp pocket rocket delivers lightening starts, smooth and quiet performance and precise throttle control.
Built around a 6-valve, single overhead camshaft, in-line 3-cylinder power unit, the new F40F is light and compact without sacrificing an ounce of performance and reliability, said Yamaha.
"Yamaha's engineers have held nothing back in developing our new electronically controlled F40F outboard," said Brett Hampson, National Sales and Marketing Manager for Marine Products at Yamaha Motor Australia.
"Our commitment to innovation and quality is evident with the new F40F sharing many engine technologies with our industry leading F350 V8. Electronic multi-point fuel injection, single throttle valve control and 32-bit electronic control module are just some of the features onboard the F40F which deliver a key performance advantage in the marine outboard market."
A modern cowling adds to the engineering appeal of the next generation F40F 4-stroke outboard from Yamaha.
Yamaha's intelligent F40F is available in three model designations,
F40FEHDL, (electric start, multi function tiller handle, hydro tilt, long shaft)
F40FEHTL, (electric start, multi function tiller handle, trim & tilt, long shaft)
F40FETL, (electric start, forward control trim & tilt, long shaft)
