Gear or not to gear
Hi!
I have run a Promax 300 with a Torquemaster lower unit since 1999 without any gearfailure. I have shifted gear at normal idle (600 rpms) without any problem.
I will use twin 2002 Merc 2.5 EFI SS engines this summer. I have seen that someone starts the engines in gear. Does this make sense anymore with a 2002 Sportmaster lowers? I will use props with Flo-Torq II hubs.
Cheeeers, Toffen G
