Jun Itoh In charge of Engine Design. Suzuki Employee for 17 years. When we started development of the DF100A/115A/140A our goal was to retain the best characteristics of original DF140 and focus on more fuel efficiency and reliability. To achieve our goal we incorporated a number of new technologies into these outboards. These are the first four-cylinder outboards to incorporate a knock sensor. To determine the sensor placement, we carried out a series of tests to find the proper position for mounting the sensor on the engine. Adding the knock sensor to the engine allows for finer control over...
