I am experiencing a whining sound when in forward and reverse when the engine rpm is below 1200.In neutral the engine is quiet and smooth.I have a BV-1505 with about 140 hours on the clock.The gear box oil level appears normal.Any idea what could be causing this? MikeB

I have a 36 feet timber displacement hull vessel currently using a 40 year old Yanmar 3ES low speed 50 HP engine and plan to replace this with Beta Marine diesel. Can I have opinions on suitable Beta replacement model please? Hendrik Tasmania Australia

I have always experienced problems with excessive belt wear on my B14 (325 hrs). Tried different belts and always adjusted per requirement with no improvement. Belt dust is always heavy around the alternator and has to be cleaned after several hours of running time. Any suggestions?

I have a 3 year old Beta 1505. Great engine. Started up 1st time this spring. I did however notice that the alarm that usually sounds when glow plug is activated and engine is stopped did not sound. Any explanations? Everything else works fine. Thanks Brad
