Looking for some help on what I should be doing on an annual basis to properly maintain the jackshafts in my '96 28 CC? I purchased my boat second hand and haven't found anything in the manuals I have re: how and what should be maintained?
Also, how concerned should I be with rust on the shaft? The port shaft, particularly the end that connects into the outdrive, has considerable rust compared to the starboard side. What would you guys recommend I do about it - lightly sand it away (although I'm concerned about messing up the balancing)? do these shafts eventually have to be replaced?
Ideas/recommendations would be appreciated.
Thx
