Hi guys,
My first post.
I have a 1994 Johnson 115 which i have only owned for a few months now. Ive noticed its starting to get quite tricky moving it into neutral. Sometimes ill have to go into reverse, then up into neutral. Sometimes i have to jiggle it a bit before it actually goes into neutral. Once i get it in neutral, it sounds like the motor revs up quite a bit, as soon as i put it into gear it settles down.
This is while ive been boating around on and off for the last hour. The first start of the trip is as expected, i need to give it a bit of throttle but then it settles down once the motor is warm.
Im not sure if its related, but i hear every so often when i do get it into neutral it sounds like its sitting half way between neutral and in gear. Its a sound thats hard to explain, almost like its not fully out of gear. This could be my problem??
Can anyone shed some light on my potential problem, or am i being paranoid?
Cheers
Rico
