I have a 1999 df60 suzuki. Runs great but I am getting fuel in the oil. Any help would be greatly apreciated. This motor has very low hours on it & I don't wont to hurt it. If any one knows of a direct line to suzuki tech support, please let me know how to contact them.

make sure the thermostats are working, and run it harder and more often! -
Can be caused by too much slow speed trolling and in such cases it is called "making oil" - the unburnt fuel gets past the rings and into the sump, and sometimes the sump overflows.
Best way to keep it under control is to give the motor a good hard run for 10-15 minutes a few times every trip, and instead of trolling back to the ramp, give it a good hard run home at 75% throttle. This will help to burn off any fuel in the oil.
More frequent oil changes are good idea if you do a lot of slow trolling, for this very reason.
Cheers
