Suzuki 20 HP DF20AEL2 Outboard Motor

Suzuki's DF20AEL2 puts 20 HP of fuel-injected power on a long shaft, started electrically with a pull cord kept in reserve, and steered with a tiller, built for heavier jon boats, skiffs, and sailboat auxiliary work. What to check before buying This long-shaft version suits taller transoms; measure yours before ordering, since a shorter-shaft edition of the same engine exists for lower-transom boats. Digital CDI handles ignition timing on the twin-cylinder block, which tops out in an operating range near 6,300 rpm, and the propeller spans 10.25 inches in diameter with a 9-inch pitch. Power and fuel A 145-watt alternator ships as standard equipment, feeding the starting battery while a 3.1-gallon tank and hose keep fuel on hand. The crate holds a manual and tool kit too. Common questions Is there a back-up starting method if the battery fails? Yes, a manual pull cord stays in place alongside electric start. Which shaft length is this? The long-shaft edition of this 20 HP engine. Coverage runs under Suzuki's 3-year warranty, standard across this engine family. Tiller steering keeps everything, throttle, shift, and steering, at the motor itself, which suits boats where running a full console setup isn't worth the extra cost or complexity. That same simplicity also makes the motor easier to service, since every control is within reach at the transom.
