I own a 26ft. Starcraft with a 5.7L Mercruiser I/O, 250 HP, V8. lately, when I try to go over 10 knots, it makes a loud noise (almost like a motorcycle) and I have to bring back down under 10 knots. I changed the oil/water separator and it did not help.<br />Anyone knows what might be causing that?.<br />Thanks
