Shifting Problem 1986 25hp

I have a 1986 merc 25 hp with the shifter on the handle.
Sometimes it is really hard to get it to shift into fwd, the
knuckle that links the shift rod to the shifter pops off, and
we have to remove the cowl and replace the linkage into place.

It seems to have something to do with the locking mechanism
that holds the motor down when in rev, the releases when in fwd.

Has anyone encountered this, and what should I do??
