Gear rattle. You ought to hear my Cummins 450 at 550rpm. Lots of gear noise in N.
If something was wrong with that gear you would hear it when in gear with prop load. If it quiets down with added revs, that is good. If it gets louder with added revs, then time to worry.
My vote is to GO.
It just gets faster—not louder—with added revs in neutral. No sound at all in gear at any rev. Looks like we’re going!
I’m really grateful for the advice.
