My buddy ran his 1998 I/o Chaparral this weekend and when he turned to the right it had a bad vibration. Any ideas?

Turn left......?

Sorry, that' all I have for now. I'm going to ask a buddy at work today, because I think he had the same problem once. I'll get back with you!

soudns normal, probably just the porp gettign air around it and not pulling water thru. I take it the turn was a fairly hard turn?

There is a name for this phenomenon but it's monday and I can't remember.

It could be cavitation but something must have changed from previous to get that to happen now and not before. I think I'd suspect the u-joints too.

Of course just turning left will make you feel better for a little while
