The lower unit on my suzuki DF 140 had contact with hard bottom and ended up chipping three teeth on the pinion and gear set. Does anyone know if you would normally go ahead and replace the bearing also because of this metal floating around. The mechanic was not going to.

I have a 2003 Suzuki DF140. The tilt/trim is starting to act up. If I start let it sit a day or so without using it, The tilt and trim will be very slow until I fully trim it down and let the trim motor fun frreely once is gets at the bottom or I can just go up all the way ant let it run for a...
I have an 03 DF 140, About 200 hrs on it. I just replaced the water pump for the second time about 10 hrs ago. After this I noticed that the water pressure at full throttle is a little lower than usual (or I think, I believe it used to be 11-12 psi and now is 8-9 psi)and when you come off...

I was wondering if there are any props that fit other motors that will fit the DF 140. I currently have a powertech and it seems like they make a specific one for the suzuki and johnson DF series. Would any of the mercury props that have the same gear case size and same number of splines fit...
