Good day folks, I've just changed my oil pump in my 2004 DF140 Suzuki outboard. I was wondering if any of the gaskets are reusable? I have the valve cover gasket which is rubber and the engine holder base which is aluminum. Any of these 2 reusable? Not trying to save money, it's just that the parts...

If any of you are running 10w40...what brand are you running and where are you getting it?

Thanks

Hey Guys, A certified Suzuki dealer (That shall remain nameless for now) :oops: tells me that the motorcycle oil will work just fine in my DF140 and is the same as the Marine oil...I'm a little skeptical, however I can’t find any info that they are different… I know the Motorcycle oil doesn’t mentio...

Hey Guys, So last night I put the hose into the flush port and sure enough the water was flowing through the pee hole…put the ear muffs on…no PEE! So I decided to take of the LU and put the hose directly into the water port and pee whole pee’d again!! I figured it was the impeller at this point so I...

Hey guys, I really need your help! I’ll try and make this short… 2004 Suzuki DF140 (same as Johnson) Last year due to a move in the middle of the summer I only used my boat twice in June 2013 everything was fine and my water pump was working…When came time to prepare it for winter in September 2013,...

Thanks forn the tips but would the same apply to 4strokes?

Thanks for the comments guys. Based on this i will store it with gas in the lines and chage the impeller next season!

Hey guys, In was winterizing the boat when I realized that my water pump is not working! Price to pay for putting the earmuffs on with no water....doh! It really only ran for about 30 sec and the engine wasn't that hot so i'm not to worries. But i was wondering Can i still run the engine 30-60sec at...

Spinnerbaits have produced the most pike for me...for some reason when it comes to pike the shinnier the better for me! hehe...

I have a friend that has landed 2 nice ones back to back on a wacky style senko...

But If I would have to choose one it would be the spinner bait!

If you freeze them straight with a little bit of salt, they stay pretty nice...If used for trolling slap a tooth pick in it so it stays nice and straight.

I take it you launched from the Cumberland Ferry? That is a fairly long ride out to Rideau Falls to look for Perch fry! gotta be a closer place???? Yeah, there are closer launches but that one on the QC side is a very nice one...we fished by Rockland to start off but we thought we would head down f...

Well me and a buddy (2nd time fishing) went out on the ottawa last week, I decided to give the river a chance after getting skunked last time...We dropped at the ferry launch and headed for the weed beds...after about 10 cast with the spinnerbait I throw on a white tube and at the first cast BAM! I ...

Hey all,

Ya I agree, I had a Honda 2hp 4stroke that was OK for my Big Blue Fin that I once owned, but for my smaller Smokercraft it was too much and too loud. I once owned a 3hp Merc 2 cyl, 2 stroke that was so quiet and smooth!!! I wish I kept it.... only problem was that it was a 2 stroke. so the Honda wa...
