Hey Guys -
I have a 1998 Suzuki DF70 outboard motor that is giving me issues. Two outboard mechanics have not been able to figure out what is going on.
It will not go past 3000rpm, it backfires (just a bit not much), and it has very little power. When I crimp the gas hose that goes from the bottom of the fuel injector rail back to the VST, the motor works great, but if I unclamp it, it goes back to behaving all messed up.
Only has about 400 hours. 180psi compression on all four cylinders. This is everything that I have done on it:
New VST and the high pressure fuel pump (Vapor Separator Tank)
New Spark plugs, Oil, impeller and anodes (part of regular maintenance)
New Fuel Pressure Regulator (located at the bottom of the rail - see video)
New mechanical fuel pump
New Fuel Filters
A boat mechanic connected it to the computer and didn't get any codes.
Always use REC90 gas
I've ran out of options. I don't know what else it could possibly be! Please help
watch video please.
