Suzuki 4hp 4-Stroke Outboard Engine

The Suzuki DF4 outboards are a completely new design and demonstrate the Company’s determination to make the advantages of advanced clean burning, fuel saving 4-stroke technology available to the portable engine user. Ease of operation and handling ranked very highly in the design criteria. Power is provided by a single-cylinder OHV engine with a displacement of 138cc – the largest in the class. Combined with the lightweight this produces excellent low to mid-range torque and fast acceleration.

An industry first is the digital capacitor discharge ignition system. This combines the ignition coil and control processor into a corrosion resistant single unit which produces precise control of the ignition timing, gives stable idling and has a built-in rev limiter. The tiller handle is mounted on the steering bracket allowing the operator to sit well forward improving weight distribution. Other features include 180-degree steering providing good manoeuvrability even in shallow water drive; a 1.5-litre integral fuel tank and a large carrying handle.
