Hi Everyone...I recently picked up a 1996 Suzuki DT115 outboard. It's in excellent shape, compression around 140 in all cyl, good spark, starts right up and idles great. I mounted it on my boat the other day and was messing around with some things and noticed the flywheel wobbles from side to side. It is tight on the shaft, and if I grab it and shake it, the whole shaft has about 1/8" of play side to side/tilting. My first impression is a bad upper main bearing. Question is...can I get the bearing out and replace it by removing the flywheel/stator, etc...or do I have to tear down the entire motor. I'd hate to have to rip it apart, because the thing runs excellent right now from what I can see. I don't really want to run it like this and ruin it, it seems like a great motor.
Thanks
Thanks
