Outboard engine with improved efficiency

-

WHEN designing the Suzuki 2 stroke engine, Suzuki engineers focused on improving not only mechanical but also fuel efficiency.

Each component was analyzed and redesigned to reduce mechanical loss in order to improve efficiency.

As an example, a new oil pump design makes internal oil flow more efficient, keeping moving parts better lubricated while using less energy.

The combined reduction in mechanical loss throughout the engine contribute­s to better fuel economy.

Durability Against Shallow Water

The sleeve, under panel and upper panel of the water pump is hardened with hard chrome plating to increase durability against sand and mud. A new retractabl­e carrying handle folds down and out of the way, when not needed.

In addition to making the outboard easier to carry, it gives the engine a more compact form when mounted on the transom.

Through Prop Hub Exhaust

In addition to quiet operation, a through prop hub exhaust system provides greater exhaust efficiency resulting in increased combustion and accelerati­on. Other advantages include reduced power loss and superior high-speed operation.

Capacitive Discharge Ignition (CDI)

The CDI Unit System is used together with the ignition coil and functions as an over-rev protection device. This unit also provides stable idling.

The outboards feature a programmed tilt system that offers easy, three-stage adjustment of the outboard angle for shallow water operation.

The system is equipped with a reverse lock that automatica­lly engages when the engine is returned to its normal operating position to prevent the engine from kicking up.

Keystone Piston Rings

Special keystone piston rings use a unique design that delivers more power to the crankshaft with reduced energy loss.

The rings also increase combustion efficiency, offer greater durability, reduce fuel consumptio­n, and lessen the chance of sticking rings.

Loop Charge Intake System

Dome-shaped pistons and cylinder heads help move more air and fuel into and exhaust out of the cylinder increasing both combustion and power for every stroke. With this, Suzuki's two-strokes deliver better fuel economy, more power per cm3 and greater overall performanc­e. (Conditions Apply)

All Suzuki outboards receive this specially formulated, anti-corrosion finish.

Applying the finish directly to the aluminum alloy allows for maximum bonding between the finish and aluminum creating an outstandin­g treatment against corrosion.

The Suzuki Outboard motor are available at Niranjans Suzuki Dealership in Suva, Nadi, Lautoka and Labasa.
