Hi,
I've been the proud owner of a 400DA since the end of Novermber 2012. I really love this boat and because I have been handed down the dreaded DIY curse from my father I am presently spending more hours tinkering than boating. But it's still winter and just maybe i will be able to get ahead of the maintenance and little issues before spring. Haha. Anyway, I've had the boat out on the nice days and done some cruising I I've heard a singing noise that seemed to come from the dashboard. But I just dismissed it as a reflected noise. Kind of sounds like a turbo whine. However, today I realized that if I put my hand on the throttle housing that the noise was deadened a lot, and so I have realized that this singing noise is coming from the throttles. I did a search on such a problem, but came up empty. Anyone know what is causing this? The only thing I can think is that the tach cables from the Glendinning Sychronizer are somehow coupling noise into the throttle cables.Maybe a bad bearing in the sync? It works fine. Noise is definately related to engine RPM. Only strange thing is that it is MUCH less noticible when the transmission is in neutral. Any ideas or thoughts would be great. Thanks! Peter
