Suzuki 25 HP DF25AS Outboard Motor

Suzuki's 25 HP DF25AS trims cost and weight by using a manual pull-start instead of an electric starter, while keeping the same 15-inch short shaft, tiller steering and electronic fuel injection found on the electric-start version in this range.

Why manual start

Removing the electric starter and its wiring keeps this motor lighter and mechanically simpler, with nothing to charge before you head out. The fuel injection system still runs without drawing on an onboard battery, so starting is by pull cord only, with no electric button to fall back on if the cord is wet or frayed.

What's in the package

Suzuki includes a 6-gallon external fuel tank with its line, an aluminum propeller, a basic tool kit and the owner's manual with this motor, along with Suzuki's 3 year factory warranty on the engine itself.

Handling at the transom

Trim and tilt are adjusted by hand rather than by a power switch, and the tiller grip carries throttle control. A digital ignition module controls spark timing, and the engine is cooled by water rather than air.

Care after salt water

A quick fresh water flush after running in salt water helps protect the block and fittings over time, and the owner's manual covers the basic service schedule for this engine.

Is this electric start? No, it starts with a manual pull cord only. Does it carry a factory warranty? Yes, Suzuki's 3 year factory warranty.
