[QUOTE="Pappy, post: 426594, member: 3278"] [size=5]Pull the gearcase and start at that point. Your post was not very clear on the issue. Is the shift handle frozen in place? Is it moving back and forth like there is nothing attached to it? Will the engine turn over by rotating the flywheel? If not then the gearcase may be frozen up. Water in the gearcase may be the cause. At any rate pull the gearcase and see if the gearcase will or can be shifted by hand. If it is full of water then a full inspection will let you know whether you need a replacement before you start to get this engine back in service[/size]. [/QUOTE]
