"Hi guys I,m a newbe to this site,but it looks great.My 97 100hp mariner won,t engage reverse, checked cable adjustment and seams ok,will go into reverse on the earmuffs but when in the water with load on the prop willnot engage properly[jumps rapidly in and out on the linkage].Pulled the lower unit,thinking there may be some adjustment but found none.Seems like there is no detent for it to click into properly.Is the gearbox easy enough to pull to bits?Also gearbox oil stinks like rotten squid,is this bad?Thanks in advance Tony."
