yesterday after fishing buddy put it in gear & gunned it to come out of hole it blew out & all of a sudden a pecking noise came in our 88 merc xr4 150 . we put muffs on it to use water hose on it to start it & listened . sounds like pecking is coming from one of the top 2 cylinders . what might this be & why thanks
