Thread: Boats and Motors :-((((

I give up
Bought a new Suzuki 140 11 months ago done 83 hours and major fault
Left yesterday for Nelson without diagnosis to why Low Oil pressure alarm activating but was not a sensor
Outboard shop (top guy) rang later in day and said found problem and some oil regulator thingi
A 1st in NZ for this model (which is actually same in 100hp and 115hp as the 140hp)

So no parts in NZ and part to come from Japan
I said tell them if they ever want to find a potential flaw or possible "rare" fault - lend motors to me as I will have it develop/occur for sure

Me and boats are just not meant to be
So mid Jan before up and running – good thing is I wont have to be dodging all the Xmas loopies that flood the Sounds over that period – or the Boat Police who I detest
