My 86 85 HP Force does that just about every Spring, no matter what I do in the Fall. I wedge a 2x4 verically inside the well, and use another 5 foot 2 by as a lever right on the end of the shaft where the motor connects. A little effort and pop, all is well. Then I take the mess apart, and rifle the bore smooth and re-grease. I have changed the grease fitting to an oiler during the season. It's always when it sits a long time. good luck.
