I do agree with the fact that there is nothing wrong with a well maintained OMC drive as long as you can get techs to work on it who know what they are doing....when I got our boat 7 years ago it went into gear OK but would not come out of gear into neutral....I took it to a good local shop with techs that had gone to the OMC schools and had all the knowledge...and after they got done with it it shifts with 2 fingers...that was 5 years ago and all I have done since then is just maintenance....every year I pull off the drive at the end of the season and check the bellows for water...grease the gimble...ujoints...change drive oi...lube all shift pivot points...and even after being slipped in salt water for 6 months at a time...still shifts with 2 fingers...and it's 21 years old.....
