Troubleshooting & FAQ
Q: How do I confirm this kit fits my Suzuki engine?
A: Please check your engine model against the "Compatible Engine Models" table. It is crucial to note that this kit does not fit DF25 V-Twin or the newer DF25A/DF30A models. Verify your OEM part number if possible.
Q: What are the common signs that my gear case seals need replacing?
A: The most common signs of a failing gear case seal are discovering a milky, white substance in your gear oil (indicating water intrusion) or seeing gear oil leaking from the propeller shaft or lower unit housing.
Q: How difficult is this kit to install?
A: We strongly recommend professional installation. Replacing gearcase seals requires disassembly of the lower unit, specialized tools like a seal puller and press, and a good understanding of outboard mechanics to ensure everything is reassembled and aligned correctly.
