5.0 Mercruiser Alpha 1 Gen 2
In May of this year before splashing the boat, I did new bellows, shift cable and gimbal bearing. These were all done as preventitive maintenance. There was no water intrusion. The shift cable was OEM. The bellows kit and gimbal bearing was not. Here we are in late Aug. and I'm hearing a growling noise upon start up. I'm thinking the gimbal bearing. Is it possible to go that quick?
