Lots of recent info on past replacements of damper plate M-25b xpb. I have some rattling noise at idle, could be the same issue, seemslike it may be getting worse this year. Any way to confirm the plate is going bad without pulling the engine? I have about 790 hours on 2003 build year. Is this something that gradually gets worse, shows symptoms, but you can milk it home, or does it fail catastrophically and leave you searching for a port to sail into? How many hours at failure? Obviously I would prefer to fix on my schedule instead of loosing the engine on a nice week long cruise. Any major warning signs before failure other than a rattle?
Thanks, Dave
