Throttle not engaging

I have a e25tecos that set up for a while and when I go to increase the throttle you have to push the handle in to get it to work. It is as if you have to engage it at the knuckle where the handle lifts up the two gears are not meshing together. I have not been able to tear into it yet but was hoping for some common issues that I can look for.
 
Looking at the parts diagram numbers 107 and 92 are not engaging each other. The handle (97)
has to be pushed in and held in order to engage each other. I was wondering if maybe it was number 108 maybe causing the spring to slip and push the handle out. I would also like to know what I need to lube the linkages with. Thanks again for the help.

Pull the handle apart it could be simple as a worn bushing? If both gears are beat up real bad you should replace with new or good used parts. Is the handle tight on the steering bracket?

Was finally able to take a look at the handle and number 108 broke. It calls out a groove pin but I am not sure on the dimensions. Would a roll pin work? I would like to find a fix by the weekend if possible even if temporary.

What condition is the bushing #108 it keeps the gears meshed? You may be able to shim it with a washer temporarily until the righ part arrives?

I would also order two of these and tighten everything up. #91 for the short shaft

Great info. I am guessing you mean 106 for the bushing unless I am looking at the wrong diagram, if so it is gone and I have it on order along with the other bushings. Great idea on the #91 as well. Thanks for all of the info. I am sure I will have more questions as I dig deeper into it
 
Sorry yes 106 and use a good high quality marine lithium grease when putting it back together. A standard roll pin will work you may need to snip some off with a pair of dikes.
