Hello all,
I have a 1999 four winns vista with a Volvo penta engine. I had the outdrive rebuilt last season and it ran great for last month. Today when I launched it , there was a clinging noise from the outdrive only in neutral. I would compare the sound to like a prop hitting cement. It sounded like gears were slightly touching while spinning. As u can tell, i am not a mechanic. Also after a 5 minute cruise it seems to have stopped. Should I worry, get it checked? Its under warranty for season. Thanks any advice would be great.
