  • Danny from k@J Marine has helped out our channel in the past with some sunk motors. Today we visit Danny at his shop in Florida City. Danny is going to diagnose a 250 df Suzuki outboard engine. Along the way Danny Explains the process and shows his work flow as he completely disassembles the engine. This is a very long video but meant to be extremely thorough so someone doing the same process can see how its done. We will try to film the rebuild after the heads are done .

    The impact of the driver actually helps, as long as you let it do it's thing. Steady pressure will snap more than 80% of the time.

    I bought a 2014 300hp suzuki with a blown power head for 1500 dollars I spent 3k on rebuild which I did myself but I put a new oil pump bearings and rings all new gaskets and 7 new valves new timing set. She runs like new. Guy let motor sit for 4 years and never winterized it. Was a cool project. I would love to share pics and videos

    Very cool video that shows how much work is involved. As a former small engine mechanic people have to understand what he did in a few hours will probably take someone a few days lol but also how as an independent mechanic you want to help people out but spending 20 minutes trying to do that on the phone is costing me money ..... Danny is a very fast , efficient, and knowledgeable mechanic 👍🏻

    Good video, I'm going to show my wife so she understands why I paid out to replace my water propeller. And watching Danny I understand it when my boat guy said 6 weeks and I had it back in 3. The next time it needs replacing I will do it myself but having someone like Danny that really knows what they are doing, and can look over a motor tell you what else needs to be done. Priceless!!

    @MikeyDee25 Před 2 lety +3

    Yo ALFRED, you need a video light for your camera if you intend to shoot instructional videos! Every time you moved the camera towards the starboard side of the motor you washed out the video because you were facing into the sun. When you showed the port side you were golden, the sun was over your shoulder lighting the motor up for you! Same for when you filmed the rear of the Suzuki, you went from bright sunlight to a dark interior and you couldn't see the work that Danny was doing too well. You know I love ya, oh mighty KING of HAULOVER and BRONCO BUSTIN GURU, but please get a video light for shoots like this!
    PS, the interior shots of the motor inside the shop were 100% better!

    Those thermostats only had a little corrosion. Pretty simple items you can test in boiling water and if they open they are still good. Let them cool and they will close. I would check the thermostats before buying any outboards used as it will tell you how much corrosion and crust is in the motor and indicator of how it was flushed. I learned to flush with Lime-away or barnacle buster as well!

What would something like this cost if takes the block sends to machine shops and install new piston, sleeves, rings, rods and bearings, whatever it needs for that block. Mechine shop heads with new vals, seats, etc... ( a premium head package)? Turn key operarion for that Suzuki motor. Also how much down time to be drop in the water.?
