Suzuki Outboard

[Glenn]

I have a late 80's (I think) Suzuki DT4 on my DS3. I bought it used from a backyard used outboard dealer. It has a sticker that says 100 to 1. The guy who sold it says no way and to use 50 to 1. Anybody have this motor and know what Suzuki says to use?

A quick check of the Suzuki outboard forum on Iboats.com says it's 50:1

There's at least a half dozen threads on the subject, and all the answers are the same.

My early '80's 4hp Johnson uses the same ratio.

as does my mercury.

Thanks for the info. I scraped the 100/1 sticker off.

Very interesting, i just bought this exact motor. And sure enough it has a sticker on it that states 100 to 1.

I have to ask, where did the sticker come from?
