suzuki 2007 four stroke 90 hp motor

[man2ville]

I am looking a buying a 2007 90 hp four stroke Suzuki outboard motor for my 19 foot Carolina Skiff.

Does anyone have any experience with this motor?

Excellent motors overall, only issue is a design defect that can lead to a exhaust corrosion hole in the engine holder. Easy to check by taking off the left side [from rear] mid-section cover and looking all around the screw-in plug. To replace the engine holder is around $1500 [$800-$900 parts, 4-5 hours labor], so not something you want to miss on your inspection.

They can turn larger props than most, but the 2.50 gear ratio means you have to be more selective to get the right prop.
