Re: Capri 1950 noise when turning ?
The mechanics at that marina are Volvo certified mechanics and the place has a very good reputation. Last summer I had them change out the boots on that drive and give it an overall inspection. He told me that the ujoints were in good condition as i asked him specifically about that realizing the age of the boat and questionable service done by the previous owner. This noise only developed this season and I have only had time to use the boat maybe 5 times since the mechanic changed the boot. Otherwise it is stored on land.
If it is something I can diagnose and fix myself I will do that, but otherwise it means another trip to this mechanic who is 2 hrs drive from my town, so it is a major time investment just to get it to him. Nobody else locally will touch these old Volvo engines and drives around here!
