WBRICATION
The power head is lubricated by oil
mixed with the fuel. All models are
equipped with automatic oil injection.
The recommended oil is Suzuki Out-
board Motor Oil or a good quality NMMA
certified TC-W oil. Recommended fuel
is unleaded gasoline with a minimum
octane rating of 85.
Recommended lower unit lubricant is
Suzuki Outboard Motor Gear Oil or a
good quality SAE 90 hypoid gear oil.
Gearcase capacity is 175 mL (5.9 oz.).
Gearcase oil should be changed after in-
itial 10 hours of operation and after eve-
ry 100 hours of operation thereafter.
Reinstall drain and vent plugs securely,
using new gaskets if necessary to ensure
a watertight seal.
a lightly seated position is 1-1/2 to 2
turns out on Model DTl3C and 1-3/4 to 2-
114 turns out on Model DT9.9C. Final ad-
justment should be made with engine at
normal operating temperature and run-
ning in forward gear. Adjust idle speed
to 600-650 rpm in forward gear.
Main fuel metering is controlled by
fixed main jet (15). Standard main jet
size for normal operation is #105 on
Model DTl3C and #137.5 on Model
DT9.9C. Standard pilot jet (5) size for
normal operation is #85 on Model DTl3C
and #65 on Model DT9.9C,
On a new or rebuilt engine, the first
tank of fuel should be mixed with a rec-
ommended oil at a 50:1 ratio and used
in addition with the oil injection system
to ensure sufficient lubrication during
engine break-in. Gasoline and oil should
be thoroughly mixed in a separate con-
tainer. After first tank of fuel is deplet-
ed, switch to straight gasoline in fuel
tank.

CARBURETOR. A Mikuni B24-15 car-
buretor is used on 8 hp models and a
Mikuni B24-18 carburetor is used on 9.9

The power head is lubricated by oil
mixed with the fuel. Fuel:oil ratios
should be 30:1 during break-in of a new

service when using a NMMA certified
two-stroke engine oil or Suzuki "eCI"
oil. When using any other type of two-
stroke engine oil, fuel:oil ratios should
be 20:1 during break-in and 30:1 for
normal service. Manufacturer recom·
mends regular or no-lead automotive
gasoline having an 85-95 octane rating.
Gasoline and oil should be thoroughly
mixed.
The lower unit gears and bearings are
lubricated by oil contained in the gear-

6. SERVICE MANUAL
During break-in (first 10 hours of op-
eration) of a new or rebuilt engine, mix
a recommended oil with the fuel at a
50:1 ratio in combination with the oil in-
jection system to ensure adequate lubri-
cation during break-in process. Be cer-
tain oil and fuel is thoroughly mixed in
fuel tank. After initial 10 hours of op-
eration, switch to straight gasoline in
the fuel tank.
The lower unit gears and bearings are
lubricated with oil contained in the
gearcase. Recommended gearcase oil is
Suzuki Outboard Motor Gear Oil or a
suitable equivalent SAE 90 hypoid gear
oil. Gearcase capacity is approximate-
ly 230 mL (7.8 ozs.). Lower unit oil
should be changed after the first 10
hours of operation and after every 100
hours or seasonally thereafter. Reinstall
drain and vent plugs securely, using a
new gasket if necessary, to ensure wa-
ter tight seal.

ement in a suitable solvent and blow
dry with clean compressed air. Inspect
filter element for excessive blockage or

FUEL PUMP. A diaphragm·type fuel
pump is used. Refer to Fig. SZIO-4 for
exploded view. Fuel pump is mounted
on the side of power head cylinder
block and is actuated by crankcase pul-

When servicing pump, scribe refer-
ence marks on pump body to aid align-

if air leaks or cracks are noted, or if de-
terioration is evident.
REED VALVES. The reed valves are
located behind the intake manifold. The
intake manifold must be removed to ac·
cess reed block and valves assembly.
Renew reed valves (2-Fig. S"l10·5) if
petals are broken, cracked, warped,
rusted or bent, or if tiP of petal stands
open in excess of 0.2 mm (0.008 in.)
from seat area. Do not attempt to bend
or straighten a damaged reed petal.
Reed stop opening (0) should be 3.8 mm

thread locking compound to threads of
screws (4).

(2) closed and retighten screws (1). Ad-
just throttle link (4) so throttle arm (3)
is against stopper (5) and clearance (C)
is 0.5-1.5 mm (0.020-0.060 in.) with
throttle in fully closed position. Make
sure throttle plates are synchronized at
full closed and full open positions.
If throttle cables require adjustment,
loosen cable adjustment nuts and adjust
cables so core wires are tight with no
free movement in drum (6). Make sure
arm (3) contacts stopper (5) when throt-
tle is fully closed. Oil iJjection pump
control linkage should be checked
and/or adjusted after speed control link-
age adjustment. Refer to OIL INJEC-
TION section.

CONTROL LINKAGE ADJUST-
MENT. Make sure speed control linkage
is properly adjusted. Initial length of
pump control rod (5-Fig. SZI0-7)
should be 77.5 mm (3.05 in.) as shown.
With throttle in fully closed position,
clearance (C) between lever stopper (6)
and boss (7) on pump housing should be
1 mm (0.040 in.) or less, but stopper (6)
should not contact boss (7). To adjust,
loosen nuts (4) and adjust length of rod
(5) as necessary. Make sure nuts (4) are
securely tightened after adjustment.
After adjusting pump control linkage,
recheck speed control linkage and read-
just if necessary. Refer to SPEED CON-
TROL LINKAGE section.
OIL FLOW SENSOR. Inline filter
contained in oil flow sensor should be
periodically removed and cleaned in a
suitable nonflammable solvent. Manu-
facturer recommends renewing filter if
excessive plugging or contamination is
noted.
To test oil flow sensor, remove sen-
sor and connect a suitable ohmmeter
between sensor red wire with blue trac-
er and black wire. Plug sensor inlet and
connect a vacuum source to sensor out-
let. With vacuum applied, ohmmeter
should show continuity. Remove vacu-
um source and sensor should show in-
finity.
BLEEDING PUMP. To bleed trapped
air from oil supply lines or pump, pro-
ceed as follows: Fill fuel tank with a

OUTBOARD MOTOR
50: 1 mixture of recommended gasoline
and oil. Fill oil tank with a recom-
mended oil. Loosen bleed screw (B-Fig.
SZ10-7 or SZI0-8) two or three turns.
Start engine and allow to idle at 650-700
rpm until no air bubbles are noted at
bleed screw (B).
CHECKING OIL PUMP OUTPUT.
Start engine and allow to warm-up for
approximately five minutes. Stop en-
gine, disconnect oil pump control rod
from carburetor and remove oil tank.
Conneet oil gage 09900-20205 or a suita-
ble equivalent to oil pump supply hose.
Fill oil gage with a recommended oil un-
til oil is even with an upper reference
mark. Bleed system as previously de-
scribed. With oil pump control rod in
fully closed position, start engine and
allow to run at 1500 rpm for five
minutes. Oil consumption should be 1.0-
1.9 mL (0.035-0.065 oz.) in five minutes
at 1500 rpm. Move oil pump control rod
to fully open position, restart engine
and allow to run at 1500 rpm for two
minutes. Oil consumption should be 1.2-
1.7 mL (0.04-0.06 oz.) in two minutes at
1500 rpm. Renew oil pump assembly
(2-Fig. SZlO-8) if pump output is not
as specified. After reinstalling oil tank,
bleed air from oil iJjection system as
previously described.
NOTE: Results of 011 pump output test
msy vary according to weather conditions,
testing error or other conditions. The man-
ufacturer recommends repeating output
test procedure two or three times to ensure
the proper test results are obtained.
