Hi,

Regarding the Yanmar SD40 Cone Clutch... We we coming down the fairway to dock yesterday and went to shift into reverse and the transmission made an ugly sound and we got no propulsion in reverse. The sound was kind of high rpm metallic slipping/grinding noise. Not good.

Then this morning while trying to diagnose the problem in our slip, we were able to shift from forward to reverse getting the prop to spin, but in forward at about 1500 rpm vibrations started to become noticeable.

Does this sound similar to the Cone Clutch symptoms.

Thanks

Meck
