I have an issue with a shifter control. I have 1992 sylvan spaceship deck boat with 5.0 ltre mercruiser. Was troubleshooting a tilt-trim issue, and tried to remove throttle-shifter handle. Neighbor assisted and removed tiny set screw from bottom of handle. Later found trim solution, but overlooked that set screw was never reinstalled. launched boat, engaged forward, and smacked dock nose-first when shift wouldn't return to neutral or reverse.
Last september someone posted an exploded diagram and tips for how to dismantle handle and make corrections, but computer crashed and have lost my saved info. I finally have the time to make the repair, but lack the expertise. The mercruiser manual I have sems to be designed strictly for beginners with little/no detail. I would appreciate any help you could offer.
Thanks,
