I removed my lower unit to change the impeller. Now when I turn the prop manually it makes a clicking noise. I am positive it was not making this noise before removal. Is it somehow in gear now? How do I get it back into neutral?

I would drop the leg and check that the shift shaft hasn't turned as you reinstalled..turn the shift shaft on the leg manually to neutral position..use a socket and wrench to turn it ...then bolt it back up

I have the lu off right now while the crack in it is being welded. Should I just be able to turn it and then check to see if the clicking noise disappears? Is there markings on it to show the neutral position?

"There are 3 postions, centre one is neutral. make sure it is centered then spin prop...make sure your shifter (remote) is also centered in neutral before reinstalling the leg."

How is that done? How did it come out of adjustment? I just simply removed the unit and never touched anything else.

Turned the spline shaft a quarter turn with a pair of pliers and the clicking sound went away when I turn the prop shaft.
