Hi. I recently was given a 15 foot glastron, year unknown but im guessing 70s. It has a 40hp 2stroke johnson outboard.
The motor is on the boat but nothing is hooked up. I was told the motor runs great, but that it wont come out of forward. The guy said that its controlled electrically through a wire that runs through the lower end. Also none of the steering or throttle cables are hooked up.
I need some advice on where to start working on this thing.
id like to fire the motor up before working on the shifting issue.
Im not sure of the year on the motor. Its an electric start.
Ive had a lot of experience working on 70s jet boats but am lost on this type of motor.
