Members coyote chop Posted March 16, 2017 Members Posted March 16, 2017 Hope to get some feed back on this. When I go from neutral to forward I sometimes will get a hard clunking noise in the lower unit. I put it back in neutral wright away, shift back into forward and all is good. Runs great on plane. Sometimes I will get multiple clunks before going back to neutral. Checked the lower unit lube for any metal contamination and it looks good. Any ideas would be appreciated.
fishinwrench Posted March 16, 2017 Posted March 16, 2017 Need to know what your idle RPM's are (engine rpm while idling in the water in neutral, or in neutral idling on muffs). There is a shift interrupt switch that might be the culprit but you have to verify proper idle speed first.
Members coyote chop Posted March 16, 2017 Author Members Posted March 16, 2017 Hey Wrench thanks for your quick response. The boats down at Lake O. I will have to check the RPM's next time I am down and get back with you. You just might have another job. How far are you from Racoon Hollow?

fishinwrench Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 Don't pay any attention to ^^^^those^^^^ knuckleheads. They are just being funny and don't even know that a right at the Oak tree actually WILL take you to Possum Hollow......But that ain't where I am. I'm 3/4 mile south of the Gravois public access, If I whistled you could hear me but it's a bit of a jog by road from RH since we lack a bridge on this end. If it turns out to be the shift interrupter switch I can just talk you through it. snagged in outlet 3, mixermarkb and BilletHead 3
Members coyote chop Posted March 18, 2017 Author Members Posted March 18, 2017 Thanks Wrench. As soon as I get back down I will check the RPM's and get back with you. Not sure when that will be.
