M_Boats: re: motor shut off procedures-Yamaha and Suzuki 4S

I was speaking with the service advisor about the right way to shut down a new Yamaha 4 stroke and he said don't run the carb, dry. He said just shut it off. He said the float inside the carb. should not run dry under normal boating. I also asked the same question to a different service advisor at the Suzuki shop and he gave the same advice. I was always told in the past to "run it dry" but apparently that's changed with the new tehnology motors., at least Suzuki and Yamaha. Anyone else discussed this with your outboard shop? Randy W.
