  • Yamaha 75 Gearbox Query

    Please can any-one advise on:
    The engine is off, gearshift control in neutral - prop turns freely.
    Put gearshift in reverse - manually turn prop and it tries to turn the engine.
    Gear shift in forward - what should happen when you turn the prop? Should it also try to turn the engine or not? (Mine doesn't it just makes a clicking sound as you try to turn it, but I thougt it should also try to turn the engine).
    I've run it up with muffs and everything seems fine. I can't actually get it to the water for a couple of weeks yet - so don't know how it performs under pressure of the water. I just want to know whether it is Ok or not. Its really beggining to bug me.
    Wondered if any one out there could advise.
    Thanks,
    Alan.

    The prop will click in one direction and lock in opposite direction when in forward gear.
