Suzuki remotes!?

[joetheweed]

Hi gents, I have an old suzuki lying around and I was wondering if you can only use suzuki remotes on a suzuki outboard??

Depends on whether you need electrics or just throttle & shift. What Soozook is it? Electric start, PTT, etc.?

[joetheweed]

It's an old dt28. I'm guessing I could wire up the ignition, choke, kill cord separately?

[joetheweed]

It is electric start and hasn't got PTT.

If you sort the electrics separately then any control box running 33c cables would be ok to work the throttle & shift. You could use a Yam, Honda, Tohatsu, Soozook or a generic aftermarket control box. You could use a Mercury/Quicksilver box, but you'd need to use hybrid Yamahariner cables which are Merc at the control box end & 33c at the noisy end.

Oh that's good news.
I did have an old box with cables but at the engine end the distance from the outer sleeve (on a bracket on the side of the engine) to the selector arm wasn't long enough. I think that makes sense.

Trevor G had a DT75 nicked but I'm sure he still has a set of remotes?

I havwe even mixed bits of control, box in the past to get something running!

Yeah, separate electrics is a dawdle - arguably easier than in the remotes as remotes aren't wonderfully waterproof, and you canaccess the back of a panel so much more easily. but remember with thr electric start you will need to make a new loom to go between the panel & the remotes for the anti start in gear switch..... unless you think you will never accidentally start it in gear WOT......

How can I ask Trevor G if he still has the remotes?
