Re: Mercury V6 Lower Unit Problem?
Brian, I'm on the eastern shore of Maryland in Pocomoke City bout two miles north of the Md/Va line. I use to live in Carroll County back in the eighty's and fished from the bay bridge down to your area. Now I fish out of Crisfield most of the time. I'm glad I helped someone out. It had me pretty worried for awhile. I had just bought the motor used and the first time I ran it on the hose I thought it was going to blow. When I took it back the first thing they did was take the prop off and most of the noise disappeared. Then they put an alum. prop on and you could hear it but not like when the SS prop was on. I still worried about it until another dealer explained the same thing to me about the noise. I've used it one time since then and had no problem. Do you do any fishing up there? I here some monster rock have been caught near you. Butch
