Hi,
I have a 5hp 2-stroke Mod # M5B-369 / Serial # 16565. any idea of he year?
I can't believe I could have missed it. I looked several times and all I saw were about 6 holes to drain the bottom of the engine cover. I did not see any telltale or even a hose leading to a tell tale under the cover. I'll look again, and I'll look for the clean out plug as well. Thanks so much for the help!! here

Ergonomically designed new Large Front & Back Carrying Handles which allow easier carry and transportation from having one handle positioned slightly below another. more
In addition, you can now store your engine in 3 different positions without worrying about oil spillage.
*Please refer to Owner's Manual for storage and transportation guidelines.
The tiller handle has been extended 110mm from previous models for easier access and maneuverability. [links]
3-way storage positions (Port, Front & Starboard side down) without worrying about oil spill. *Please refer to Owner's Manual for storage and transportation. more
The 2.5hp Tohatsu outboard motor is an excellent choice for square back canoes, small tenders and inflatables, and other small craft. The new 2.5hp 4-stroke outboard includes the newly designed top and bottom cowls, 3-way storage positions without worrying about oil spill, the newly designed front and back carrying handles for easier transportation, ultra-low emission, and EPA and CARB 3-Star rating approved.
The twist type throttle control is provided on the steering handle for quick steering as well as one-handed operation to assure your safety. [links]
The 2.5 hp is lightweight and has a four point vibration absorption system to minimize vibration along with sensational fuel economy. The MFS2.5CS engine is light, compact and powerful boasting the largest displacement in its class (85.5 cc).
Depending on which model of 3.5 it is, the impeller is either a doddle, or a bit laborious, to change. The 3.5A simply requires removal of the prop and the plate behind it; the more common 3.5B requires the leg to be dropped. VicS will probably be along shortly to tell you how to get a proper manual on-line. It's not a difficult job, but doing it without is a recipe for tears.
Yes there is no guidance on the 3.5 impeller location in the owner booklet-it just says "take to dealer"!
I did mine recently and assumed it was behind the propellor backplate. It is in the leg.
You just have to take out the rubber bung at the leg bottom and the clamp screw for the gear lever is there 10mm head. loosen that but not completely and when you undo two bolts under the cav plate the leg can be lowered and the water pump is visible. Be very careful not to lose the little pin that drives the impeller when you remove the pump. It is only a half hour job but can be fiddly getting the water pipe end located and the drive shaft into the spline. There is a plastic grommet that the water pipe fits into and this can lift off when you split the leg and it need re fitting in place so that the water pipe can then slide into it, with a bit of grease.

It might simply be that the tell-tale channels are partially blocked. Some people have had success adding vinegar to their wheelie-bin water to clear this. A long run helps, as the water heats up.
