    I have a 1995 malibu response mercruiser package,It has the 1:1 velvet drive
    trany,the thing has a nasty rattle at an idle only,I'm told these tranys are bullet proof,has
    any buddy else had this,is it the trany or is it
    possible theres something else causing the noise?

    Hardcore,
    What is your boat idling at? They say it should be no less than 750 rpm with a velvet drive. Post your question here for more responses.

    Thats a good question,right now I can't check
    the idle,I'm installing a shower but as soon
    as I get the thing hooked up I'll fire it up
    and check the idle.I do know when I put it in
    gear and idle up a little it goes away.
    I'll post my question again after I check it out.
    THANKS,LUMPY
