Can I purchase a new component, such as an ECU or oiler, from DFI Technologies, Inc.?

No, we only supply repaired engine components and work on a core exchange basis. You are required to supply a defective core component which will then be repaired and returned to you.

I need to use my boat this weekend. How long will it take to repair my component?

Generally, our in-house time is 3-4 days. With next day UPS delivery available, you should expect no more than 5-6 days down time. However, every failure is different and every repair time is different.

This engine has a problem! I need assistance in troubleshooting. Can you help?

Yes! DFI Technologies, Inc. is pleased to be able to assist you in correcting the problem. Collectively, our knowledge covers all aspects of the DFI motor and components. Our troubleshooting assistance is free. All you need to do is call.

My ECU has failed. I found a used ECU from a similar motor. Can I change over the software and data to make it work on my motor?

It is technically possible to make it work. However, any ECU that has not been upgraded by DFI Technologies probably has the same design defects and limitations that caused the original ECU to fail. It is just as likely to fail as the original one!

Over the past years, we have discovered many improvements we can make to the ECU. We incorporate these improvements into every unit we repair. Better to be safe than sorry! Send it to use and receive a more robust ECU in return.

Is your work guaranteed?

Yes. We stand behind our work with a one year limited warranty. For full details, view our Warranty Policy.

My motor starts and runs great for 20-30 minutes, then it shuts off and the three lights on the dash light up for 10-15 minutes. Then it cools off and does it all over again. Is my EMM the failure?

Yes, your EMM is most likely the culprit. Just pull it off and ship it to us for diagnosis and repair.
