[quote=solaris;1178868]I replaced the 200 HP Fict on my 685 cruse craft in feb 08, with a 250DF and have completed around 360 hours trouble free, average 1km / L for an outside trip and 1.2 Km / L in the Bay.

Solaris have same motor same boat put the 4 blade solas on the zuk had the same problem mucked around with the motor heights and ended up at the original position then had the prop cupped to bleed of about 200 rpm from WOT. It is perfect now with no cavitations’

Question for the Zuke experts:

I had a look at the DF150 & DF175 and they look like identical motors - same CC's, bore, stroke, weight etc. Is it just some electronic trickery that gets 25HP more? If so how hard/expensive is it get hold of said box of tricks?

The 175 (like mine ) has variable valve timing, the 150 does not. Other than that they are essentially the same. Pretty easy to get hold of the box of tricks, they throw it in free with the 175 engine! (sorry sarcasm follows me)
