When you engage the forward or reverse it puts a load on the engine which decreases RPM.
Then when you shift to neutral the load is immediately released, hence the increased RPM.
(Sorta like shifting to neutral in your car while driving down the road without taking your foot off the gas)
What is the lowest RPM you can do smoothly while in gear at idle?
Congrats on solving the stuffing box issue!
