    Suzuki DF6

    Hello, I bought a 2023 Suzuki DF6 long shaft. My question is, Can the extension be removed and is the drive shaft a 1 piece or 2? I no longer own the boat that this was used on and the extra length is over kill. I use this small OB just for trolling, My bigger OB get me to where I am headed.

I did bypass the control and it will still run slow and noisy. I have changed the fluid several times and it...

    1994 Force 120 HP Ser. # 0E089004

    This 120 really runs well, so well that the ignition switch doesn't turn it off. It uses Mercury's Thunderbolt ignition system. The CDI Electronics website states that the Black/Yellow wire is the kill circuit, if you ground it, it should shut down the engine. Problem is there is not a...

    Is it needed?

    On the outside of my 1971 StarCraft 18' SS is a triangular shaped piece of wood where the outboard mounts up. My question is, is it needed? I restored this boat a few years back and this plywood doesn't hold up well. The paint peels, looks terrible.
