I took the boat out for a shake down cruise after having some outdrive work done. I had a hard time shifting into reverse. Forward was easy but the throttle was stiff going into reverse. Most times it wouldn’t go into reverse at all. Got home and took the cover plate off and unhooked the cable from the gear yoke and it acted the same. Btw the reverse locking rod is hard to push in and out as well. Isn’t it supposed to slide pretty easily in and out of the hole? Anyway at first I thought that might be the issue but like I said the throttle lever acts the same even when disconnected from the yoke/rod. Any tips on trouble shooting this further? Thanks for any help.
Robert.
