Grinds shifting into forward or reverse, Doesn't want to catch until nearly 3/4 throttle.
After in gear, anything from idle to 3/4 throttle will buck and jerk.. clutch dog slipping... At WOT will hold gear no problem and run smooth can back it off to just under 3/4 before starts bucking again.
Does this sound more like linkage adjustment or is lower unit toast? I feel like wouldn't hold gear at WOT if clutch dog / forward gear was worn?
Will be draining lower unit and checking for shavings this week
