I have a 2003 df70 with less than 800 hours on the clock. I would hope that no manufacturer could possibly program an outboard to shut down at certain hour totals. I often use this engine in the upper Niagara River above Niagara Falls. Can you imagine if I reached 800 hours and I was a half mile from the falls. This must be an urban legend story. |
