There is a thread about this on THT but I wanted to ask about it here. I have noticed an intermittent squeal in my port engine. It only happens when I have been running fast (planed off) then slow down to idle speed. I sometimes hear a squeal for about 60 seconds then it goes away. I have no engine warning indicators or anything obvious like that.

I will surely ask a dealer but I suspect if I brought it in they would not be able to duplicate the sound.

Suggestions? Anyone else experienced the same with the Suzuki 150's? Mine are 2008's.

Thanks
 
I think I'd check the torque on the prop nut.
 
I have messages out at 2 Suzuki dealerships up this way. I did another search on THT and found even more instances of this squeal.

The person answering the phone at the last shop I called said his 225 does the exact same thing. I will let you know what I find out. I welcome any suggestions if anyone has come across this.
 
I'd watch the water tattletale. Could be the impellor running a bit dry
