I've been hearing this "jingle-jangle" sound when on plane and I think I have found the culprit. Except I don't really know what to think of it. The red arrow is pointing to a 10MM bolt whose head is stuck in that void where the shift rod passes through between the two pieces. I've never had one of these apart in this area. Has this bolt come loose from either the top of where the rod comes through or the bottom of where the rod goes through?
I'd rather not haul my boat out of the water and disassemble the engine just to find that I didn't need to. Does anyone know where this bolt may have come from?
