I did spend a few hours reading this forums archives and didn't see the same problem reported. Some were close but did not sound like my problem. I know I can trailer the boat to a dealer for warranty service and will do so if necessary. I prefer to know something about this problem before taking that step.
Thanks again for any info or advice. more
Hi All from a boating newbie. Sure would appreciate a little info here.
I have just this week bought a 2005 (New in original box from a authorized Mercury dealer) 60 HP 4 stroke EFI Outboard.(Not the bigfoot)I also have the original full 3 year warranty.
I hired an on site marine tech(who located the dealer and motor for me) to come to the house and hang it on my 1983 28 foot "Funtoon" pontoon boat (all aluminum and stainless boat) The marine tech also wrote the "death notice" for my 1983 Evinrude 60 HP 2 stroke outboard which died an untimely death in July.
Everything lined up nice and install went off without any "OOOP's"
New control cables, control box and prop from Mercury dealer as well.
Just finished the first two break in hours per the owners manual.
Starts and runs like a dream. I love it!
But. at one certain low RPM's it squeals softly between the power head and the lower unit. Go up or down a hudred RPM's or so and bingo, she runs quiet as a sleeping kitten. All other throttle advances and reversals quiet and smooth. Shifts quiet and smooth as well.
The marine tech located the squeal and is clueless as I am as to its cause.
He called the dealer service and they report no similar complaints on this engine.
What say the sages of this forum ?
Do I have a minor annoyance that will likely go away after my first 20 hours break in ? Or do I have a potential lemon on my hands ?

I'm running about 34mph with this setup at 5250 rpm's. When I trim up to try and get a couple extra mph's, I start to porpoise. I was on glass flat water over the weekend and I couldn't trim up too far or else I would get the porpoising. here
I have a 2004 Tracker PT 175 with a 4 stroke 60HP EFI Mercury on the back. Currently running a Mercury 3 blade prop with a pitch of 15.
I'm thinking of going with a 14 pitch prop, but I doubt that is going to help my porpoising problem. [links]
