[QUOTE="ggoldy, post: 334761, member: 12539"] For example: assuming nothing is cracked and I can get the prop off(I wouldn't want it if I couldn't) and there's no noise(grinding) when I turn the shaft, how much movement, if any, to expect in the shaft? How much leakage, if any, to expect around the seal? Checking water pump output if it's water cooled. What else can a person look for to determine the condition without taking it apart? Looking at the oil is a no-brainer, but that could be changed very easily. Thanks [/QUOTE]
