The one downfall of the 4 stroke is going to be weight. When I bought my 25hp Suzuki it was the lightest 25hp sold. But it was within 10lbs of the old 40hp... And I know since I have one, it's about 100lbs heavier than a johnnyrude 20,25,30,35 twin
I had a 40hp Johnson super seahorse ( big twin ). I opted to downgrade to a Suzuki DF25A. It is a decision I do not regret. Its quiet. Starts quick. Not that the big twin started hard. But it's just smoother and more enjoyable. Not much speed if any really was lost. It doesn't launch as hard.I...
You can get repair sockets easy. Then use a led bulb for that. However go through the perko catalog. I found the exact replacement navigation light for my old StarCraft except it's led. Bolted in original holes and gasket was identical as well as housing
'94 burb will have swirl port heads. Great for torque at low RPM. They are out of steam above 4,000 RPM. Also the burb will have a de tuned engine if it's a 3/4 or 1 ton.. I'd get all the power back with Vortec heads
Federal limit for trailers without brakes is 3,500 lbs. You will be right on that full of gas and equipment.. If you have a controller. go electric with 5 pin wiring
If you are taking it around the block it could be golf cart tires and it won't matter.
But the next person who reads this may have something like a trailerable express cruiser and put on P rate passenger tires in the 205-75 R 15 that the trailer might have and try to make it 3 hours to the lake.
I have said time and time again that the reason you can't use a trailer tire on a vehicle is the sidewall construction being designed different... As someone who has driven in a truck with trailer tires on the front I know why. It wanders because of the flex. Trailer tires are always more than...
If it's a van tire. That C rating is for cargo and not load rating. Those would actually be load range E and better than a trailer tire. However car tires are generally not acceptable and wouldn't be load range C
Indeed I live in a state where a spotter is required. As it should be. I've thought about putting the 30hp ecu and intake mesh in place but it voids warranty. I would have bought 30hp except Suzuki doesn't make the DF30A in short shaft. So I have to make it if I want it
I think I might just buy the cheap tube Walmart sells and see what it will do. I put the loosest pitch prop I could to get the RPM up on plane. We will have fun regardless
My girlfriend wants to get a tube behind my boat. I think it will work at a minimum but I'm not sure. It's a 14' StarCraft Holiday 14 with a Suzuki DF25A. Anyone?
