Hey everyone, just put a new clutch dog and forward gear in my 35 hp 1979 Johnson OB. It ran great twice, but now is popping out of gear again. It has either forward or reverse (depending on my manual adjustment of the knurled nut), is it possible my shift cable is stretched?
I have adjusted by putting the shift lever in reverse, making sure the detent is proper, and went from there. there seems to be 1/4" of play in the cable, could this be enough to allow the gear to slip out while underway?
Thanks, as always,
jeff
