I have a 98 Force 120. I had the top half rebuilt a couple years back. The compression in all 4 cylinders is fine. The problem is when I put it into gear, there is a vibration that you can feel throughout the boat. It also can come and go, but it is 95% always there. However, it might stop for maybe 5 seconds and then start up again. At full speed there is nothing noticeable but then of course the hull is hitting the water so i don't know. It is most noticeable just putting it into gear at idle. I have taken it to two marinas and demonstrated the problem. At first they say something is wrong. Then they (say anyway) that they dropped the lower unit and everything looks alright and not to worry about it. I figure it is something with the lower unit since it only happens when I put it in gear. Could I have a bearing that is sometimes slipping in in the case, by that I mean the whole bearing not just what is susposed to be spinning. I would greatly appreciate any suggestions.
