You don't put motor oil in a lower unit. Get a few tubes of lower unitgear lube from a marine supply dealer and a device to squirt it in. Remove the screws at the top and the bottom. Drain the old lube out. squeeze the new lube in from the bottom till it comes out the top, then re install the screws. Do this at the end of every boating season.

What does it mean when the gears don't engage on a 1977 mercury boat?

Adjust or change the cable that goes from the shifter to the transmission or engine, unless it is an outboard, and then I am not sure. On the outboard, as already mentioned, check the shift cable first. If no problems are observed, the the problem is most likely in the gearcase. If the gearcase has been removed, it is also possible that the shiftshaft is not properly, or at all, engaged with the lower shiftshaft. Should the above checks prove ok, then worn gears, clutch, or internal gearcase damage is probable.
