Johnson 150 Ocean Runner (J150EXEUC)
Issue: Reverse engagement is temperamental either not shifting into gear and free revving or grinding then dropping in. Forward is never an issue and it does not pop out of gear.
I currently have the lower end off and the gears pulled. I suspected a dog...
I needed to use a little persuasion to drop my lower unit and noticed the shift rod has a bend/jog in it at the eye hole. Did I bend it or is it supposed to be there?
