6060 rattles

Bought a 2nd hand 6060 and its rattling like a bone shaker.... anybody know what could be causing this and whether is curable or not ?

Cheers

I would double check that it is clean, often they sit and algae and salt dries up inside them and then they rattle or break when restarted. You may need a new 6080.60 drive unit at worst to repair it. Also, double check that the bush bearing (collar areound the hole the prop assembly sits in) is fully pressed in.
