Something that has nagged me for many years is "Do I need to have the outdrive (a 270) lowered all the way in order to run the engine while the boat is on the trailer?". On my slopped driveway, I have always had to lower the tongue of the trailer all the way down in order to be able to lower the outdrive into it's full down position.
Can I leave the outdrive up and still run the engine as long as I always keep the drive in neutral without doing any harm to the outdrive and/or connecting components such as u-joint, etc.?
Thanks!
