Hi All, I have a 97 Mercruiser 3.0 LX that came on a Bayliner Capris I've owned for ( this summer) 3 years. A Relative commented last summer ( previous same boat owner) that he thought it was vibrating rather loudly. Engine seems in great shape with relatively low hours for the year. I replaced the lower unit seals ( was getting gear lube weeping out) water pump prop etc. and have not had the problem return. Runs at correct temp and oil pressure. I had it out yesterday and the odd vibration is still there although the boat runs great tubing, waterboarding and cruising. I have posted a YouTube after we got home so please give me your thoughts. Can not hear the sound at lower RPM's and it makes no difference in or out gear. You'll hear the Raspy vibration in the Vid once the engine is revved!
Thanks........
