Stupid question
Just purchased a boat with 300x's, havent had outboards in over 20 years. while removing the prop last night i noticed a little play front to back in the shaft. should there be any ? is there a way to tighten it ? its a sporty lower unit.

Re: Stupid question
Hi Bern, some front to rear play is normal, check the amount on the other gearcase, but if you think it is excessive have Rolph look at it.
