I was wondering if anyone could help me determine the cause of a
knocking noise when i engage my prop in forward or reverse (1997
Mercruiser Alfa One outdrive). I gues I'm trying to determine if I can
pull the lower unit and replace worn parts myself or if I should bring
my boat to the shop.

Any advice or comments will be greatly appreciated.

Have you had your shift linkage adjusted? Mine knocked for a while, but
stopped when the linkage was adjusted. The rapid knocking occurred when
shifting from forward to reverse.
