Every day it's something...

My 1989 70HP Yamaha ETLF...changed plugs yesterday and ran like a champ yesterday and most of today. Towards the end of today heard a "clicking" sound, almost like when you reverse pedal on a 10 speed bike, tick tick tick tick. If I increased the RPM it got louder and quicker, pull back on the throttle to slow/no wake speed it was less but still there if you listened carefully...it did not happen at neutral or reverse.

Just another day with an 1989 outboard motor that I have owned for 6 months! :eek:
