My brother calls me, he has a freind and someone gave this freind a boat but the motor makes a "funny noise".
I go to look at it, it starts and runs pretty good but the fly wheel is moving up and down maybe an 1/8", when it goes down it makes a sqeueling noise.
He shuts it off and there is small aluminum peices all over the engine case, is this just a bearing or does he need to redo the whole motor?
When it is off you can wiggle the fly wheel, more up and down than side to side but it moves both ways.
It is a Johnson V-4 115 Model 115EL76D, if someone knows the year on that that would help too.
Thanks in advance.
PS he is doing the work not me
