Tohatsu outboards are known for their durability and simple, maintenance-friendly design, and regular oil and filter changes are one of the most important ways to keep your engine reliable throughout the boating season.
Our range includes an original Tohatsu oil filter with the part number 3BJ-07615-0, which is designed to be precisely compatible with the manufacturer's own four-stroke engines - using an original filter ensures the correct filtration efficiency and flow characteristics, which are designed specifically for the Tohatsu engine architecture. The function of the oil filter is to retain small metal particles and impurities that accumulate in the engine oil, which are created during normal use - without a functioning filter, these particles would circulate in the engine's lubrication system and significantly accelerate wear in the long term.
The recommended oil change interval for Tohatsu four-stroke engines is typically specified in the manufacturer's manual for the number of operating hours or once per season, whichever comes first - it is a good idea to change the filter with every oil change, not just every other time, as the filter is a relatively inexpensive part compared to the protection it provides for the engine's internal components. The first oil change of the season, especially after winter storage, is a good time to change the filter as well, as moisture and impurities can accumulate in the oil during long periods of inactivity. Always check the make and model of your engine to ensure filter compatibility before ordering.
Although the Tohatsu range is not as extensive as that of larger manufacturers, the availability of original spare parts is still important to maintain the quality of service - using the wrong or incompatible filter can reduce the filtration efficiency and, in the worst case, cause oil leakage due to an incorrectly fitted seal. We recommend that you always order at least two filters at a time if the engine is regularly serviced several times during the season, in which case the stock will be sufficient for the next service without a separate order. The service interval for Tohatsu four-stroke engines is typically stated in the owner's manual in both operating hours and calendar time, whichever comes first - seasonal service is recommended especially for engines that are rarely used, as the oil will age over time even without accumulating operating hours.
Always carry a spare filter if you service the engine yourself at regular intervals during the season.
Using an original filter ensures proper filtration performance, which is designed specifically to suit Tohatsu's engine architecture.
The first oil change of the season after winter storage is a good time to also change the filter, just to be on the safe side.
Change the filter with every oil change, not just every other time, for the best protection.
