Suzuki 9.9 HP DF9.9BL2

The 2020 Suzuki DF9.9BL2 is a manual-start 9.9 hp four-stroke, started by recoil pull rope rather than a battery and electric system, which keeps the motor lighter and removes any charging wiring to maintain. It suits buyers who want a simple, self-contained motor for a smaller boat or a dependable backup kicker. What to check before ordering This listing does not spell out shaft length, so confirm the correct reach for your transom with us before you buy; mounting the wrong shaft length changes how the propeller tracks and can hurt both handling and fuel economy. Steering and throttle are both built into the tiller handle, with a tension control for one-handed operation underway. Running and upkeep over time Fuel delivery is electronic injection rather than a carburetor, feeding from the included 3.1-gallon tank and fuel line. The motor keeps the usual protections for this class: a low oil pressure warning, an overheat warning, an over-rev limiter, and a lockout that stops it starting while already shifted into gear. The finish is saltwater rated with multi-layer corrosion resistance, and a flushing port built into the cowling makes rinsing it down after a trip easy. Does this model have an electric starter? No, it starts only on a manual pull rope. Is a propeller included with the motor? Yes, a 3-blade aluminum propeller ships with it. Suzuki's three-year warranty covers this engine.
