    I positioned the lower unit to horizontal position and sprayed kroil on the prop shaft and after letting it kreep in the prop easily slid off.

    Not much corrosion inside and minimal backlash between the gears.

    There is NO cotter pin hole in the prop shaft and brass nut holding the prop in place.

    You’re right a thorough inspection and cleaning is needed.

    I have the Lubriplate
