Authorized Suzuki Dealer

Outboard Motor Repair and Service in Little Falls, MN

Tune-ups, diagnostics, and repairs on 2-stroke and 4-stroke outboards. Authorized Suzuki service, and we work on every other major brand. All makes, all sizes, no matter where you bought it.

Keep It on the Water, Not at the Dock

An outboard that will not start, will not idle, overheats, or loses power partway across the lake usually comes down to fuel, ignition, cooling, or controls. Our technicians find the actual cause rather than replacing parts until it runs, and we handle everything from a seasonal tune-up to a lower unit teardown.

We are an authorized Suzuki dealer, so Suzuki owners get factory-trained service and parts, and we service the other major outboard brands as well. Need inboard or sterndrive work instead? That is on our boat repair page.

Outboard Service Questions

Do you service outboards you did not sell?

Yes. We service all makes and models regardless of where the motor came from.

What brands do you work on?

We are an authorized Suzuki dealer, and we service every other major outboard brand as well, both 2-stroke and 4-stroke.

My outboard will not start. What is usually wrong?

Most no-start calls come down to fuel or ignition. Fuel that sat over the winter without stabilizer gums up a carburetor, and plugs and ignition parts wear out. We diagnose it rather than guessing, so you are not paying for parts the motor did not need.

My motor is overheating or not peeing. Can you fix it?

Yes. That is usually the water pump impeller, which is a wear item and a routine replacement for us. Shut the motor down and bring it in rather than running it, because overheating does real damage fast.

Do you work on inboards and sterndrives too?

Yes, though those are covered on our boat repair page. We service inboard motors and sterndrive (I/O) systems along with outboards.

Can you install a trolling motor or fish finder?

Yes. We install trolling motors, depth and fish finders, GPS and marine electronics, and general boat rigging and accessories.

What areas do you serve?

We are four miles south of Little Falls on Highway 10. For fall pick up and spring delivery we cover Little Falls and Green Prairie and go as far out as Pierz, Rice, Albany, Upsala, Swanville, Long Prairie, Cushing, and the Brainerd area.
