Remove all grease,if it is brown it had water in it.this case are a two piece shell type.
Replace the shiftier rod,spring bearing,water gets inside where the spring and ball are. Mine got water inside from using the pressure washer to clean.
Use 400 grit sandpaper to polish any rusty shafts.
Re-lube chain and gears using good grease,Valvoline #2 red grease works good.
Make sure to work grease into the needle bearings real good ,as they don't get any grease otherwise it's the way they designed them.
Clean off the mating surface of the two halves with acetone or lacquer thinner.
Use a bead of automotive silicon seal without a gasket to seal.put a bead inline with the bolt holes and at the holes go all the way around the hole.
Carefully put the shell half back on taking care not to forget any parts ,tighten as needed .
Let sealer set up 24 hours before using.

Suggest taking pic at every step
Once I took the transmission apart it had gotten water inside I pressure washed the entire inside of transmission.
Found the problem was with shifter rod and block bearing was rusted
Used red marine grease when reassembling transmission
Hard part was reassembly of the tiller this is where pics come in (take a lot) the pics in the manual were not very much help some of them didn't make any sense.
Putting it back together was the hard part because manual pics were so confusing
Tines would not engage
