Hi all,

I’ve started getting a loud screech when cold starting my 2004 bf135a. the noise will only last a couple of seconds and then goes. If I turn it off and start it there no noise. It only happens on a cold start when the motor has not been used for a week or so.

Any ideas what it could be? It’s been less than 50 hours

Everything else seems fine and the motor runs well. Sound heard in this video :

Sounds very tight at start up. I would start by checking the drive shaft support bush in the extension housing, probably seizing up and needing replacement
