- Preparing my little Hangkai 4hp 4-stroke outboard motor for boat season! Installed new NGK spark plug, new aluminium propeller and a DIY exhaust muffler/pipe that make the motor more quiet.
If you bought this motor do not trust the manual that comes with it, not only is it in poor english its also full of errors. Learn how to properly maintain your China made outboard motor. This motor is a Honda GXV50 clone, get the manual here for free www.manualslib.com/manual/904...

Thank you for this awesome video series on this motor, subscribed!
Cheers, thank you 🙏
Good call on the spark plug. I got the one with the jet drive because I was unimpressed with the plastic prop. Now I kinda wish I would have went the other way.
Mine doesn't seem to be too noisy so will run it as is a couple times but might Replace stock muffler with a 3/4" npt muffler.
Which one is the “other way” you wish you would have went??
@@riolaflare7180 he bought the one with the jet propulsion one its like thing jetskys have instead of the one that come with the propeller that is away faster and cheaper
Been thinking about getting the 7HP Version of this motor amd after seeing your 4 hp I'm definitely getting the 7hp for my small 14 foot boat
I use beeswax on the prop shaft . It never comes off and makes prop come off easy.
Yes, NGK is a much better spark pug. Also, the aluminum propeller has a more efficient design. I think you should put a turbo kit on it 😁. Be safe bro.
That should make it fly...into pieces! 😆👍 RSMF
@@GurrasGarage lol

@@GurrasGarage How about muffler pipe in the water? That would make it silent.
It would just choke the motor
Very informative! How about the oil level. Manual recommended “Engine oil Upper limit” which is almost all the way up to the engine oil inlet. the oil cover stick you will find the circle mark.
2,5dl watch my video here th-cam.com/video/bp4GM6o9kfQ/w-d-xo.html
@@GurrasGarage 🙏
Can anyone me the size of the propeller for the Hangkai 4hp 4 stroke…or perhaps the link to where I can buy the aluminum one. Thanks!
What kind of tiller extension handle would you recommend for this outboard? Thank you for all the great information. Really appreciate it.
I havent tried any tiller extension, sorry.
Hi thanks for great videos....im getting this motor tomorrow...i know that it doesn't come with any gear oil which you have to add yourself but does it have the engine oil already in it or supplied or do you have to buy and add your own
Best wishes mark uk
Fill it up with 2,5dl motor oil, watch my video here th-cam.com/video/bp4GM6o9kfQ/w-d-xo.html
@@GurrasGarage thanks 👍
The leg looks exactly thd same as the two stroke model
Good upgrades, how is it working tho when you trynna put reverse? I mean the exhaust should be same level as your face..
Thanks, good point. But putting it in reverse is something I can do standing, I think it will be ok.
Hello My son just bought a use Bass Tender 9.4 and this motor the Hangka 4.0HP 4T came with it . I just got it started after a Doz. pulls , it looks like it hasn't been use for a while so I want to drain all fluids and give it a good cleaning and tune up . We never had a outboard motor before but this looks just bigger than my weed wacker . Where can I find Parts ??
The best way would be to google it, Amazon and eBay probably has some parts. This motor is a Honda GXV50 clone so many parts should fit from that motor too.
Could I go up the tier a few miles there and back with my 10 foot Jon boat
Tempted to try one of these. The only thing holding me back is that from reading reviews, these motors seem hit-or-miss.
I paid $230 in total, a bargain and mine works fine.
I got one works great runs like the wind👍
Will this engage the prop at a low enough rpm to keep a 16ft boat under 2mph for trolling
My boat is 4meter and it worked fine, bigger boats should be ok too for trolling but it will be slower in top speed. The biggest issue is that its pretty noisy even at low speed, thats why I made this exhaust pipe.
hi there anyone have the same engine but with jet pump propeller ? and is there a way to change the propeller with newone in aluminium ? thanks
I just recently got one of the 4HP jet pump motors, and I'm already returning it, we were barely going 2 mph with the current on a 1448 Jon boat
I didn’t know you could run these without water flushing through them like most all outboards
This little motor is air-cooled
@@GurrasGarage oh wow so no impeller to change either. Nice 👍🏻
Where did you get the 16mm bent tube for the exhaust?
From a hardware shop here in Sweden , I guess they can be found in any Metal Supermarket.
Nice video, thank you for helping is out with this. Do you know how to change the oil ? I cannot find a drain plug....
Cheers. Drain plug is located under the gas tank in the engine block, you use an allen key.
@@GurrasGarage Thank you, found it !
@@GurrasGarage I like this little engine, i bought it after i watched your videos. I just have one issue, to get the propeller spinning i need to rev the engine little high, is this the same for you ? Can anything be done to make the clutch engage earlier ?
@@stefanflorin288 Mine does the same, only solution I can think of is to raise the rpm idle a bit, but it doesnt bother me so I leave it as it is.
Hi, I have a 3.5 hp that ran for about 2 hours. The prop stopped turning. I have checked the clutch and all is good but I am for the life of me unable to remove alu. prop. have you any hints or tips?
If it doesn't come off they way I did in the video, I dont really know. Its probably the prop shear pin that is broken.
Hello,
Where did you get the pipe for the exhaust extension? Thanks for the informative video!
You can probably find them in any hard ware store, i m in Sweden so i cant guide you more than that
@@GurrasGarage ok thanks. Will do!
Hi Gurra. I have this motor. But I have big problem to start it. I bought second carburator because silicon button cracked and started leaking. New carburator did not eliminated problem. Can I replace existing carburator to Honda GXV50? I have a look picture and design looks different.
Did the second carburetor have the same problem, sounds strange. I haven't tried the Honda carb so I can't say if it fits. If you have Facebook try this group for help facebook.com/groups/536817843464908
Hi!
I want to buy this one but it is shipped dry, I can't find anywhere what kind of oil transmission I need to put on this engine!
ANd also witch engine oil do you use? Thanks !
Watch the playlist on this motor on my channel, all info is there
Do I have to drain the old engine oil and then pour new? If yes then how to drain it?
Yes after 10 hours, there is an allen bolt under the gas tank.
I really like your suggestions for this motor. The prop and muffler was a concern of mine as well.
Would you suggest this motor or a larger one for a 14ft Coleman Scanoe ?
Liked and subscribed!
My boat weighs 95 kg, the 14ft Coleman S canoe is only 42.6 kg so this motor would be just fine. Thank you 👍
@@GurrasGarage Thanks man! I was hoping for that. I have a fairly lazy river about 60 ft behind my back fence.
By Google It's 164 miles long from head to tail. It's only accessible by a few areas along it. Due to our steep mountain area with deep valleys It's almost never fished. Long slow slack water with deep shaded pools and some riffles in-between.
I look forward to more of your great content. Keep it comming.
Thanks for the knowledge and inspiration! Cheers from Eastern Kentucky!
@@GurrasGarage I was looking at the prices again. The 6 hp in a 4 stroke was that much over. Would that be overkill ?
Thanks again.
@@JFCrow You might need to check how much the 6 hp weigh, the 4 hp weigh about 10 kg, I dont think your canoe is made for a bigger motor.
What is the Honda comparison manual for a 3.6hp Hangkai? Thank you
Probably the same as the 4hp Hangkai
Is this nominal displacement of 50cc 4 stroke? and then how many hp?
2hp
Who did you buy your new prop from? Thanks!
On Amazon search for motor propeller 7 1/4 5-A 3 blades
@@GurrasGarage Thank you!
Hey how’s it going? Where did you get the aluminum prop?
On Amazon search for motor propeller 7 1/4 5-A 3 blades
Does this have gear oil in the lower unit? If so, how do you check/change it? It says nothing about it in the manua.l
No you need to fill up oil. I have a video on how to do that, check my channel playlist
@@GurrasGarage thank you!
Friend, I bought a Hangkai 6 HP motor, it has only 10 hours of use. Little cooling water always came out, but today testing the motor, suddenly the water that cools the motor stopped coming out. Could you help me?
Check if the the water inlets are clogged, no water is getting to the pump, so it isn't pumping. Finally, the impeller may be damaged, requiring its replacement.
@@GurrasGarage thank you my friend
problem solved, it was a blockage in the outlet hole (possibly factory paint) the motor works fine now Thanks
How about running exhaust pipe into water? That would make it less noisy. Most outboards have it that way
Won't work its a 50cc 2hp motor, if you put a long pipe into the water the motor will loose all power (i tested with a long hose) and what will happen to that pipe when you try to go reverse, you must turn the motor 180
How do you change the oil on it I’ve got one just like it and have lost the owners manual
Allen key under the gas tank
Hey, you are welcome…
Hi I would like to be informed how long one tank of gas it will last you .Thanks.
Depends, if you go full throttle I think about an hour
هل المحرك رباعي الاشواط او تنائي الاشواط
four-stroke
Is there a carboraror upgrade that would allow me to increase the horse power from 4hp to 6.
Changing carburator only will not give you more hp. And its not 4hp to begin with, 2hp is what you get from this 52cc motor.
is this actually a 4hp motor? i see some comments saying it's only 2.. i can pick one up cheap so just wondering thanks
Its not 4hp, this motor is a Honda clone and has around 2hp. But for the price its still a great value.
@@GurrasGarage thanks just got one today! what would be a good oil mix and gasoline?
@@toml6535 It´s a 4-stroke motor! you dont mix oil and gasoline in this motor. Use 91 or 95 octane gasoline and don't forget to fill up 240ml of 5W-30 motor oil.
@@GurrasGarage ofcourse, thanks :) last question do you also put some oil on the drive shaft of the propellor? i see that in some video's or is that only for water cooled?
@@toml6535 yes you must have gear oil in the prop shaft
does this take gear oil
yes
Have you tried it in saltwater?
No, I dont live close to the sea. But I suppose saltwater is not good for any motor. This motor is air-cooled so thats a plus, no water goes thru the motor.
Is a water cooled?
no
Do you have a link to that aluminum prop by chance? I cant find it
you could try search "aluminum propellar hangkai outboard"

Translate to english please
out much is this? outboard motor are very very expensive here. a simple water cooled 4stroke 2.5hp is 1000$
I paid $250 with shipping from Amazon, I think prices has gone up a bit but not much. You can watch my review here th-cam.com/video/bp4GM6o9kfQ/w-d-xo.html

Your the second guy I've seen not checking your lower unit for 90 weight oil ???
It comes with no gear oil, I checked and fill it up the first thing I got it. Watch the playlist 😁
