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.
