I wish someone here in the US would have owned up to the problem with the sticking exhaust valve. We had to finally get rid of the engine. Absolutely no customer support from Suzuki. They wouldn’t even admit to having an issue with their valves, even when it was mentioned on several Internet forums. A lot of the people couldn’t get the problem resolved, like us, and had to junk the engine.

@@rodgraff1782 very disturbing to hear this! I hope owners that are out there get to read this and they ask questions 🙏🏼

Thank you 😀

Thank you 👍

I have a 2019 model. No problem at All

@@ronthegunman5724 I had a slip neighbor in my marina, who ever took care of his DF6A, and never had a problem either. It was a few years older than my 2018. It is kind of a random problem. Just be careful about how you store the engine. Suzuki says to store in a clean dry room. This means they don’t want you to keep them outside, in a Marine environment. They are saying this, because of all of the complaints that they have received about problems when the engines are stored outside. I am now storing mine inside, and am having better luck. A Marine engine should be able to be outside in a Marine environment, such as being stored on the transom of a tender for a yacht, or sailboat, without having issues. This tells me that these engines were constructed with substandard materials. Suzuki outboards are known for corrosion problems.

I have a 2015 model and it flies on my little Quintrex 310 Dart 🎯

Thank you

Hi, I did compare to other 6hp and the Suzuki is the lightest. The 3 way carry options was good as the Honda did not have this. It is still running very well after a year. You can go very slow however a 1 piston engine shakes a bit. I was looking at a Yamaha and have owned a Yamaha before. The dealer in our city was not as keen to market the Yamaha. The Suzuki dealer was better in my city. After sales service is another important part of the purchase. This may be different in each city and country.

Pleasure 😀

Have not seen this. Would be good to try.

It is an issue, however you can raise the transom

Sorry only understand english.

Nope - Suzuki

He didn't understand your question. There is another reviewer on YT that tells you who makes these engines, or original manufacturer

I use my 6 hp Suzuki outboard on my 14 foot jon boat on lakes without any issues. It tops out at 12 mph with two adults on board.

@@inservioverum Thanks man I'm excited. Just got a new suzuki 6 hp for my jon boat. We go bass fishing on the lakes. I heard there's a 10 hour break-in period where you idle for the first hour. Then gradually cruise at low rev.

@@bradhuskers I've read about that break in procedure for the Suzuki and very similar break in procedures for other marine engines. I firmly believe in following manufacturer recommendations for break in procedures. Its a bit frustrating with each new engine but the payoff is well worth the effort... optimal performance, efficiency and longevity after an appropriate break in. Definitely vary the throttle position every couple minutes the first few hours.

@@inservioverum Thanks again!! Will do. Quick question. I transport my jon boat in my truck bed. So I have to lay down the suzuki motor when the boat is in .my truck. With the propeller facing upward on a rubber mat, will it leak oil or gas?

@@bradhuskers Always turn the fuel valve off when its being transported. My 2006 Suzuki DF6 has a picture of a person carrying the engine... turning the fuel valve to that side shuts off fuel flow from the gas tank. Also I lay the engine on the opposite side of the gear shift lever when storing it inside or while driving it around. The carburetor is also on the opposite side of the gear shift lever. The carburetor should be above the engine (highest point) when being transported to prevent engine oil from exiting the air intake of the carburetor. I never had any fuel or oil leak out transporting it on its side (opposite of gear shift lever). One important thing I need to remember is to turn off the fuel valve and let the engine idle until the carburetor is completely out of gas, engine will simply stall when carburetor dries out. A dry carburetor will stay clean while being stored as opposed to stale gas corroding it and leaving varnish all over the tiny openings in it.

This will take a 10hp, however the weight of a 10hp 4 stroke makes it less portable. You would need an old 2 stroke.
