  • 2008 Suzuki df50

    Hi
    I've a problem with my df 50 .
    It starts first time every time , ticks over , runs ok until I accelerate.
    It can't get past 4000 revs , it sounds ok but I've lost 10 - 12 knots off
    My top speed and it'll not get up on plane.
    No alarms shown.
    Any ideas
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Pat, Most times you will find that fuel is the culprit. Whether is bad,dirty or old fuel, try using good Quailty fuel in a spare tank and see if there is any difference

      Thanks for replying
      The impeller was recently replaced and the problem seems to have started
      After this.
      Also it's using way too much fuel than is normal
      All the fuel is fresh and the filter is new.
      Thanks

        Have you checked the vent for the fuel tank!
        If not breathing well you get a vacuum in the delivery system and the engine starves
        Check the condition of the fuel bulb
        The other thing to check is just the opposite
        If one of the connections is leaking air the engine, again, will not get proper fuel
        Watch the inline fuel filter when tunning and check for presence of air bubbles
        Lastly your fuel line is old enough to have broken down internally
        Try an external tank with new gas and gas line to see if condition goes away
        You might try the last idea first. If that is successful then you would check the other points to see exactly what failed

          I changed over to a new fuel line and tank, still the same.
          New fuel always used .
          As I said it was ok until I changed the impeller.
          Could it be the adjustment on the shift rod not done properly.
