Hi,
I need some help, and think you guys are the only persons that really can help me
I have a Johnson 70 Vro from 1987.
The issue is that when i took the boat in the water yesterday, i noticed that the reverse gear didn´t work. Neutral and forward are OK.
It´s grinding and won´t get into gear.
I tried to force with my finger at the "mechanism" on the enginge when my friend tried to get the gear into reverse, and it worked.
And if i tilt the engine up and tries to get in to reverse gear, it goes in without force.
But when the prop is under water, it just won´t get into gear. *strange*
Everything worked fine last season.
For notice i had a marine service company that changed the impeller recently. Can that has to do something with this?
I also tried to adjust the "wheel" at the shift cable and adjusted until it took stop.
Is the shift cable defect? Or what can the problem be.
Please help
