Thanks, very useful I am about to do my first oil change.... after the recommended 20 hours (not sure if that actually includes the break in hours? you refill the gear oil from the top rather than the bottom hole with the pump. I guess it should not matter? lol full is full do you reuse your gaskets? the manufacturers always tell you to switch but for practical purposes it is not needed all the time I guess? when do you change the two inline filters, it says check in the manual. but what should I check, after 20 hours it still looks clean, i.e. yellow.

Nice video, thank you very much for the explanation. When replacing the oil filter, I cannot see whether there is an O ring or a gasket in between when closing it?

Do you have the manual of technical especifications.? I need please 😢 Df6 2014 4 tiempos
I got a 6hp Suzuki as well, looks the same like yours. But it does not have an oil filter housing as yours. And yes, it is a 4stroke. Any idea where the oil filter could be hiding?

Best thing to do would be look a the identification plate as I show in the beginning of the video and search for a manual online. For example my 6hp is a DF6 model from reading the first part of serial plate. Most 4strokes have oil filters might be yours does not. But have a look for the serial/ identification plate usually located on the clamp of the outboard. Then search that online

Great Video, thank you! Is it possible to show how you prepared your Engine for a longer period of storage?

I have never prepared it for long storage, I run it once a month to temperature as a minimum. As I’m always about in my garage. But it’s something I could try end of this season
