Bravo 1 problems
When my bravo is in neutral and I turn the prop by hand left to right or right to left, I feel some play before you feel the gears have contact. Is this normal. I felt another out-drive and there was no play at all. I know that on a ring and pinion on a truck there is a small amount of play. Also, this out-drive has less then 20 hours on it. When I check the plug, no signs of water or metal. Any ideas?

Re: Bravo 1 problems
it all depends on how much "some play" is
bravos are supposed to have backlash but not too much, if the blade moves left or right no more than 1/8" to 1/4" then you shouldn't have much to worry about
