The Mercury 9.9hp is lightweight, compact and powerful making it a great choice for long shaft jon boats, skiffs, and small pontoons as well as sailboat and trolling/kicker power. I priced common repair parts, things like impellers and carburetor-to-intake-manifold gaskets and they are reasonably priced.Mercury 9.9 HP Electric Start 4 Stroke Outboard Motor Tiller 20″ Shaft. The oil filter, and regular oil and filter changes, extend the lifespan. I was glad to see this engine had an oil filter because four-stroke outboard motors with their modest crankcase sump are particularly sensitive to dirty oil. I also used the Moeller pump with an oil-fill pump fitting spliced onto the end to change gear oil. With the engine warmed and all the nasty stuff in suspension, I poked the wand from a Moeller vacuum pump into the dipstick hole and sucked it all out.

Once warmed up, by playing with spark plug gap and the idle setting, I was able to get idle speed so slow the 9.9 tick-ticked like my grandfather's old watch.Īfter the first 20-hours, and about every 50-hours after that (the owner's manuals says 100-hours), I changed crankcase oil in a clean-hands, environmentally safe manner.

Even in 90-degree weather it needed a couple of pumps on the engine-cowling-mounted primer bulb and full choke. The carbureted engine is slightly cold-blooded. It paid for itself in carburetor gaskets I did not have to buy and downtime I did not have to endure. Its ten-micron-sized filter element keeps junk out of the carburetor and the fuel water separator took water out. I improved the situation somewhat by installing a Doel Fin hydrofoil that made it harder for the propeller to draw in air.Įarly on in the test cycle I installed a Racor filter/water separator specifically designed for small outboard motors. With the propeller spinning in more air than water the engine races until the over-rev limited reduces rpm. In rough water the up and down motion brings the tips of the propeller blades close enough to surface so that they suck air down around the wheel. Even so in anything more than a flat calm, sailboats hobbyhorse. Important to note, the 9.9 BigFoot is a Sail Motor, which simply means it has an extra long propeller shaft (25" versus 20" or 15") to better bury the propeller in undisturbed water.

You should also know Garelick also makes significantly less expensive manual tilting brackets. Instead of using big washers for backing plates, I cut and drilled 1/4 inch by four-inch aluminum plate. I measured twice and drilled the four holes just once. I read the mounting instructions carefully, then read them again. All the way up or down took about 20 seconds. With it an electric motor powers a hydraulic pump that feeds a ram that lifts or lowers the engine.

I mounted the 9.9 BigFoot outboard motor on a Garelick Hydra powered assisted outboard motor transom bracket. Then yank the back of the cowling to raise it up. To do so you must lean over the transom and hang over the cowling and grasp down behind the engine to release it. Tilting the Bigfoot outboard manually was difficult through no fault of the engine. The Sail Power rigged on a Garelick Hydra powered assisted outboard motor transom bracket Making the conversion required by a and TFT Extreme control cables All totaled the components cost me about $200. Or, it can be rigged with a throttle/shift box. Mercury BigFoot can be operated from its tiller arm throttle and separate shift lever. So with a Mercury 9.9 Bigfoot hanging off the transom a displacement hull feels and performs like the outboard is about a 20-horse. Mercury BigFoot's gear ratio is lower: 2.2 to one as opposed to a conventional 2.10 to one. The larger lower unit allows attaching a bigger, slower turning propeller. Accordingly the 9.9-horsepower BigFoot is fitted with a 25-horsepower lower unit that spins a larger diameter gear set and larger diameter propeller. Conversely a BigFoot is intended to make more thrust in order to propel a heavy load at displacement speeds. Standard outboard motors are geared and their propeller is pitched to put a boat on plane. The 9.9 Bigfoot was an auxiliary engine used to motor through inlets, to dock and make way on flat calm days when the sails flogged and slatted. Hundreds of hours were logged with this four-stroke rigged on the back of a 30-foot twin-keel sailboat. This review is based upon a long term evaluation of a Mercury Marine 9.9-horsepower Big Foot outboard motor.
