Hi,
The prop is totally frozen, but the engine runs OK. I pulled the lower unit and the prop turns freely, disconnected from the engine. How do I get to what's between the engine and drive shaft, and what is it? Is it a centrifugal clutch like a chain saw?
Should add that the motor was submerged in 2004 (idiot boyfriend of my daughter). I flushed and flushed and flushed and the motor runs well. The long drive shaft had no rust or salt buildup when I pulled it just now.
