Hello ,
I recently picked up 1965 9.5 evinrude . When I got it it was in pretty rough shape, no spark , carb was all gummed up, basically lost and forgotten. I've put new coils , points, condensers, cleaned carb etc. My issue is that in neutral I can't advance the throttle to start because the stop blocks me. It goes as far as shift and I basically got to put it in forward to start it and flip it back to neutral once I get it running. It's running fine no issues there. I know there's an adjustment bolt for the shifter I've tried messing with it but couldn't get it any better . Any help or info would be much appreciated. Maybe that's just the way they were ?
Thanks
I've attached a photo of the stop I'm talking about
