Fuel Filter for Suzuki DF60/70 Outboards (60–70 HP, High Pressure)

The fuel filter for Suzuki DF60/70 is specifically engineered for 60–70 HP 4-stroke outboard motors, providing them with reliable fuel system protection. This high-pressure filter element removes fine particles, rust, and other contaminants from gasoline that could otherwise harm your injectors or carburetor. Over many hours of operation, any fuel filter will become saturated – timely replacement ensures your engine continues to receive clean fuel for optimal power and smooth running.

Key applications and benefits:

• Ideal for 3–5 meter boats (1–1.5 ton) with Suzuki 60–70 HP engines: This filter is designed for the popular DF60/70 models often powering fishing boats, inflatable RIBs, and other mid-sized vessels. It keeps fuel clean for dependable performance on boats of this class.
• Guaranteed OEM compatibility: It replaces the original Suzuki filter (15440-99E01) with no modifications needed. It also cross-references to Johnson/OMC part 5030706, as some 4-stroke Johnson 60–70 HP outboards from the same era were actually Suzuki-built and use this filter.
• High-efficiency filtration (10 microns): The filter traps over 98% of particles as small as 10 microns, ensuring exceptionally clean fuel. This is critical for high-pressure EFI fuel systems, where even tiny debris can clog injectors or fuel regulators. By maintaining fuel purity, the filter helps prevent lean running conditions and engine hesitation.
• Rugged, marine-grade construction: Made from quality materials that resist fuel corrosion and saltwater exposure. The filter is designed for under-cowl mounting on the engine, so it withstands vibration and harsh marine environments without leaking or cracking.
• Easy maintenance & recommendations: Replacing the filter is straightforward – simply unscrew the old filter and install the new one in its place. Suzuki recommends inspecting this filter at regular service intervals (approximately every 500 hours or annually). Regular replacement prevents issues like fuel starvation, loss of power, or hard starting that can occur if the filter becomes clogged.

With this high-quality fuel filter, your Suzuki DF60/70 will run smoothly and reliably. Whether you’re heading out for a day of fishing on the lake or a longer cruise, clean fuel is the key to a safe and efficient engine. Invest in reliability – with an OEM-equivalent filter you gain peace of mind and maximum performance from your outboard motor.
