    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.

    Thanks Jerry, I used 2 different gauges, and both read the same. About 3 to 5 revs per cylinder.

    Thanks, Nordin, I did try another gauge and came up with the same numbers. All three were even.

    Remote control help

    Glad that you have it fixed. Any US Marine or Chrysler control will work on that year unless you are using the Mercury thunderbolt ignition.

    Old Airguide "Sea Speed Tachometer.

    I will hold onto the tach. It's like brand new, someone will need it for a restoration project. I know that it's around 1971 because the boat and the old Merc are both 71's. The boat sat in a back yard for about 16 years, outboard up. I bought it and replaced the transom and gave the boat a...

    1994 Force 120 controls.

    Ok guys thanks for the help. Jiggz was right the tan/blue is the overheat alarm. Purple - keyed power to run gauges and stuff. Gray - sender on tachometer. Brown/white - trim gauge. Black - ground. I put this 120HP on a old 1971 StarCraft 18' SS. It had a Merc 140 that was left up for 14 years...

    1994 Force 120HP tilt and trim questions.

    I didn't take the motor itself apart but I put power to it and found that the brushes are worn. It will run and then start to jerk. I would say that the bushings/bearings are also bad. There is a Generator Exchange shop in town that rebuild small electrical motors, I drop it off to them.

    1994 Force 120 controls.

    Ok, I found a little information on the internet. Black is Tachometer ground, Purple is positive on tach, Gray is alt or sender on tachometer. Still wondering what the Brown/white and Brown/blue are used for.

    1990 Lforce engine Bayliner Capri-

    Do as Jerryjerry05 stated, remove the head as the gasket could be bad. Being number 1 the top cylinder, it will be easy to see if the rings did damage. People need to de-carb every season, the rings get stuck on one side and break.

    1994 Force 120 controls.

    This 120hp uses the Mercury style control box. It has a plug that runs the gauges at the helm. My question is, there are five wires. One is brown/blue stripe. Brown/white stripe. Purple. Black, I assume is a ground. Gray is the tachometer wire. What are the brown/blue, brown/white and purple...

    1994 Force 120HP tilt and trim questions.

    Update, replaced the tilt/trim motor, and the problem is cured. Problem is the new motor is a Chinese brand, seems you can't get one made here anymore. I have the old and will see if it can be rebuilt.
