I have a 3GMD Yanmar in a 79 Hunter 30. Two blade prop. My propulsion system has always vibrated at high rpms but I thought it was a worn/bent shaft. Had the shaft replaced and now can definitely say I have vibration only under high load. In full reverse the engine is smooth as butter, but anything above 3/4 throttle forward (or jamming full throttle from stop) and it vibrates. The only troubleshooting I've done so far is to read the manual and start familiarizing myself with the fuel injection system. Anyone have a similar problem and/or recommendations? I have zero experience with this fuel injection system. I have some experience with automotive TBI, and some experience with carbs (balancing 6 on my Honda CBX) and tuning SUs on my MG, but it's not really germane, of course. This has been going on for as long as I've owned the boat (8 years) (yeah, 8 years, I know...) and I'd like to run it to ground. I'd appreciate any pointers.
