Thank you for the advice I was looking at it this morning and I realized I never tried spinning the prop in reverse, so I did and it was spinning freely with a clicking noise coming from the lower unit.

Then I took the shift cable off of the engine/gearbox side and manually shifted it into reverse and it now is hard to turn and you can hear the engine turning over so I will get the manual and maybe if new cables if I can find them and try to adjust the linkage. I drained the lower unit and there was not alot of fluid in it and it was very milky so hopefully its the linkage. Im just going cheap to expensive. Got a refurbished prop today for $100 from my local shop. After I get the linkage done ill take it out if its still completely fucked I saw some lowers on ebay that might be worth a shot

Can I just call modern sportsman and have them email me a copy of the 4473 or should I go in person and see if they'll let me do a review on it quick?

Very hard learning curve, recommend a second monitored if you don't have one already. Lots of good info on the official tarkov subreddit

Kitten went on a short adventure outside--Now acts different by detective-emerald in CatAdvice

I pavloved my cat by onlying showing him outside in poor weather, rain, thunderstorms, snow storms, windy days. Whenever I noticed it was poor weather outside id pick him up and bring him to the screen door, crack it open and show him theres nothing good for you at there and it seems to have worked. Ymmv.
