Got this out of my lower unit
Check our this wad of fishing line. When I finally got the prop off, this is what I found. Some of the seal came out with it. I am really surprised how well the gears look in this motor.... it's a 1972 Merc. 50 hp and to my knowledge (it's been in my family since new) has never been taken apart. Just regular gear fluid changes.
Now to get a new seal and put it back together.
