I am very new to boating and outboards. I picked up a used 1994 Suzuki 9.9 hp two stroke short shaft for a pretty good price. I searched the forum for specific answers for my questions but couldn't find. Thanks in Advance for help.
1) Is the throttle supposed to be springloaded like motorcycle throttle? In other words, when you increase the throttle and let go of the handle is it supposed to come back to idle? Mine does not do that so I am wondering if it is broken.
2) Does this motor have the option to be raised up / tilted up (lifted from water) when not used or when you come across rocks and such? I didn't see any levers to do this.
3) What are the following parts in the pictures? I couldn't find what they were for.
Thanks in advance for the help!
