I just bought a 06 bayliner 3.0 merc alpha 1 i/o. It just got completely serviced and at the dealership seemed to be no issues. Started right up and turned it off.
brought it home put some muffs on it, started right up idled in neutral just fine, shifted into forward fine, rev’d it a little, shifted from forward back to neutral and it makes an awful grinding sound like something not catching. Reverse is fine and back into forward is fine but only when i put it into neutral.
So i shut it off, put it in neutral and starts right up with no sound, once i go to forward back to neutral it happens again. Any ideas? Am i doing something wrong, new to boats any information would be greatly appreciated.
