  • Backlash

    I have a 1977 35hp evinrude I just bought. When it's in gear(forward or reverse)there is about 1/4 turn of backlash is this normal or do I have a problem? What gear lube should be used in this outboard and what should the compression be. It's checking 135 on both cylinders. I want to thank you in advance this forum is priceless

    The compression is good, Evinrude standard marine lower unit gearlube is good, any lower unit gear lube would be ok for your model. The back lash is normal.
