Your gearcase is a hydro-electric, not selectric. That is a very good gearcase, but you must keep the water out of it.If it has a water leak, you must find, and fix it.If it were mine, I would replace the drive, and prop shaft seals, along with the prop shaft bearing carrier oring. and retaining bolt o-rings. This really is not a hard job with the proper manual.
Thanks. Ill change the seals and orings. I just got this boat this year and have no idea how long its been since the lube has been changed. Thanks again guys.
