Hi Experts.
I just bought a mint condition 88 Bayliner 19.2 cuddy and the OMC Cobra 3.0 in line 4 has a funning ding noise in the back.
It is not a rhthymical noise but sort of a ding..pause...ding...pause...pause..pause....ding...
Sounds like it is coming from the ring gear/bell housing area.
Of course when you spool up the engine the engine noise drowns out the dinging.
It sounds like a random tapping with a piece of flat steel somewhere in the innards.
Anybody have any experience with this sort of sound?
I could take a short video and email it to anyone to listen to if that would help.
Thanks
