    Repairing Coupling assembly

    I may just do a overhaul if the engine does have to come out and replace the major parts. I was just keen to know if the engine does have to completely come out to change coupler as my slip does not have the equipment to remove engines.

    Repairing Coupling assembly

    Mechanic advised the coupler had blown due to corrosion apparently, just find it odd that the coupler had blown a day after the legs had been serviced. One mechanic is telling me it’s coupler and the other one is telling me another answer. Either way will be coming out of the water but I just...

    Have been told engine will have to come out to replace the coupling assembly. Hopefully the marina pulls through with an availability for a slip

    Prop not spinning

    The legs were serviced last week, had a jump in the water and the lower unit was moving much more freely than usual. Almost seems like it has completely come loose, had even double checked with the left legs and they not wiggle around at all

    Prop not spinning

    Spins freely that is hopefully the plan, just found it out of the ordinary how this could happen without any minor signals of something going wrong. Looks like the drive shaft has possible come out of alignment ?

    Prop not spinning

    Does have gear oil as far as I’m concerned. Boat was lifted out of the water last week to service legs. Could mechanic possible not have assembled something correctly ?

    Prop not spinning

    Update: leg feels majorly loose as i manage to lift it up and down easily. Not sure if this can be from bad hydraulics ?

    Prop not spinning

    Did not feel like I hit something with the prop, felt more like built up pressure had caused something to pop off as I was accelerating. When I engage into F/R with shifter while engine is running nothing seems to be happening or turning. Although I did manage to lift the right engine up the...

    Prop not spinning

    Hey guys, currently have twin stern drive mercruiser 350 mag mpi. Was cruising at 1600rpm and suddenly felt a loud thump while trying to accelerate. Prop on the right engine is not spinning and won’t engage into forward or reverse gear. Any thoughts would be helpful. Thanks in advance
