Just installed a new water pump. Went well and was pretty straight forward. While checking it on muffs it shifts fine and shows good water flow. My question is when in forward (motor off) it will turn in the direction of rotation by hand and you can hear it click as you turn the prop. Is this normal. Doesn't do it in reverse. It shifts fine with the motor running.

So the lower unit only locks in forward with the motor running when it is shifted?
