Since I am not equipped with a fuel flow meter I can not accurately comment on fuel consumption. The Suzuki DF90a is noticeably quieter than the Yamaha 115hp on my Whaler. |

We have a 2005 DF90 with about 470 hours. Runs fantastic. We average about 4.5 mpg on our trips. Regarding quiet: we've had many comments from other boaters and dock hands on how they didn't hear us coming. Quiet is nice. All in all, I'd definitely buy another. |

Does anyone know if the new Suzukis have shim-under-bucket valve adjusters or the traditional screw-and-locknut type? Any outboards have hydraulic valves? |

Looks like shims to me, they need a special tool to change out. _________________ Micah Curtis and Dana, RN
