2018 Evinrude E-TEC 30 HP E30DTSL Outboard Motor

The 2018 Evinrude E30DTSL is a second fully-equipped build in this 30 HP range: key-or-cord starting plus powered trim and tilt, on a 20-inch shaft, at a 187.39-pound dry weight.

What the convenience package covers

Bore and stroke run 2.992 by 2.5 inches across this two-cylinder E-TEC for 577 cc, geared at 2.15:1, with full throttle climbing from 5,500 to 6,000 RPM through tiller steering. Power trim and tilt sets running angle from a switch, useful on a boat that gets launched and retrieved often through a season.

Fuel and electrical supply

Fuel is 87-octane unleaded gasoline, and Evinrude/Johnson XD-100 is the oil this engine calls for, with the alternator reserving 15 of its 56 total amps net dedicated. Cooling is water-based, and the build carries a saltwater rating that covers both coastal runs and freshwater lakes.

Condition

This E30DTSL is new, not a used or refurbished unit, and it is effectively the twin of another power-trim build at this same shaft length and overall dry weight, differing only by model code and the lettering stamped on its cover.

Does the trim need to be set by hand? No, this build uses power trim and tilt. How does it start? Electric, with a pull-cord backup. What's the dry weight? 187.39 pounds.
