    Suzuki gear heads.....what is it?

    Motor suzuki df70 runs and after running for 5 minutes or so.....gas starts leaking out of the air box (figuring the VST filled up and had no where else to go so it pushed it out the vent tube) also gas in oil. so did some research and figured the VST was to blame. so we took the VST off cleaned it out and flushed the oil twice. Went out an tested it....and it leaked gas again out of the airbox. So we were thinking the "float" may need to be replaced?....maybe? Anyone?

    Honestly have no clue. Have you tried asking on the FB Official Suzuki Outboard Owners Forum? There are some mechanics that may be able to help you out.

    Needle and seat in the VST probably needs replacing and float level reset.
