Hi everyone, this is my first post here at iFourWinns, and I hope there are many to come.

I have a 2006 180 Horizon that was purchased in January, and now has maybe 30 hours or so. Ever since delivery, there has been vibration in the boat at low speed. We have the 3.0L Mercruiser, and I was told that these engines take some time to warm up, but ours never seem to be clear just past idle. The funny part is that it disappears completed when throttled up, and back down. ANyone else have this happen?

My 3.0 Volvo is unrulely until it's run a bit, then settles down. Regardless of how warm it is, a 4 cylinder will never ever run as smooth as a V-6 of V-8. There just isn't enough cylinders to smooth out the up and down of the pistons like in a V-8.
