4 GENERAL INFORMATION
FUEL RECOMMENDATION
Suzuki recommends that you use unleaded gasoline
containing no alcohol, with at least 85 pump octane
(.BfMmethod). Regular leaded gasoline containing
no alcohol, may also be used.
OIL RECOMMENDATION
Use Suzuki CCI oil or a Boating Industry Associa-
tion (B lA) certified outboard motor oil.
CAUTION:
Do not mix different types of oil. Mixing
different oil types can cause the oil to gel,
resulting in damage to your outboard motor.
BREAK-IN
The first 10 hours of engine operation are the most
important in the life of your engine. Proper opera-
tion during this break-in period will help ensure
maximum life and performance from your engine.
The following guidelines will explain proper break-
in p raced u res.
1. Use a 50 : 1 gasoline/oil mixture during the first
5 hours of engine operation. Use this mixture in
combination with the engine oil injection system
to help ensure adequate lubrication for break-in
operation. Be sure to use only Suzuki CCI oil
or a BIA-certified oil in the fuel mixuture. After
the break-in period, use straight gasoline for
fuel.
2. Allow sufficient idling time (more than 5
minutes) for the engine to warm up after cold
engine starting.
3. During the first 5 hours of operation, do not use
more than 1/2 throttle. For the remainder of the
break-in period, you may use full throttle, how-
ever, do not operate the engine continuously at
full throttle for more than 30 seconds at a time.
CAUTION:
Failure to follow the break-in procedures
described above can result in severe engine
damage.
