I have a dealer maintained 2005 280DA w/ twin 5.0L Mercs w/ Bravo III's. I noticed this year that the starboard engine will run more revs than the port. I've inspected the props, drives, etc... I really think its just that the linkages aren't adjusted properly. I'm fairly mechanically inclined - and the linkages are right on top the engines - but is there a trick on how to do this!? I certainly don't want to make the situation worse. What adds a little insult to injurt was the $2500 commissioning charge from the dealer that supposedly included throttle linkage inspection/adjustment. I guess I'll let them slide a little because I'd imagine it would be tough to get them to match without a test drive!?
