    in and out of gear

    Just replaced forward and pinion gear in a 1980 Chrysler 115hp. Took out this weekend and when put in forward gear the boat will jerk as if the gear is popping in and out.

    1983 johnson 140hp v4

    This 1983 Johnson 140hp v4 outboard motor has been sitting for 11yrs. Would it be worth getting it check out and worked on? The last time used ran for a while went back to put boat up and would not start has been setting since.
