    Baby Honda 2.3hp carb troubles

    Hi, my tender outboard runs well but only with the choke pulled right out, a blocked jet I thought, took it apart and it was a but grubby so gave it a clean, squirted it through every orifice with acetone and syringe, fluid passes from jets to the micro holes in the carb choke/bore. Re assembly...

    2006 DF140 Fuel/Air Problem

    well done extracting the data. the clues you present have a couple of things in them …… replacement harness (USED) why is a used harness available? since new harness was fitted the problem occurred, strikes me that replacing the harness with a new, brand new one might solve your issues. CB

    To replace or not replace a Suzuki Upper Drive Shaft Housing Top on DF 250

    Whilst the supervisor may be correct in suspecting that the corrosion of the part may not yet be critical, I would go with the mechanic, and fit a new part. Reasoning: So , after planning your fun day out on the water, and got life’s little obstacles out of the way , you get afloat and are...

    1997 merc 9.9 2 stroke wont run under load

    Many possibilities as mentioned in the above posts are valid, and suspects to be investigated, but I suspect it is a carb issue, you say you have cleaned the jets , but, was the cleaning successful. also, especially with pilot jets, the jet leads usually to a drilling, the actual jet just being...

    Suzuki DF30A actual fuel consumption

    Yes, new to me, and I also used the 25hp model for the WOT rate, and also halved the rate of the 60hp. Figuring that 25L tank might give me 2 1/2 hours flat out, but due to tidal issues and a gate into the harbour I could be bobbing around for 6 hours sometimes. CB

    Suzuki DF30A actual fuel consumption

    As the thread title, I’m thinking that with a WOT rate of 9 - 10 (ish …. I can’t find the actual rate for this engine) Litres/ hour my fuel tank is looking a bit small at 25 litres, however, I am not going to be nailing the throttle at max hour on hour, just burst up to plane then back it off a...

    Suzuki DF30A 2018

    Thanks for your reply, yes a workshop service manual is on the shopping list. I might just have to pop along to the dealers and get it plugged in, and find what they would charge for a full service, and if it’s outrageous , then after a manual read, get the spanner’s out . Second question...

    Suzuki DF30A 2018

    Hello, new to me Suzuki 30hp mounted on a Kingfisher minicat 370, the engine hasn’t been serviced for two seasons, or at least the last documented service was late 2021, and apparently…… according to the sales guy, hasn’t been used much recently, (no great confidence in that statement.) The...
