I know this subject has been broached before and I have reviewed the previous threads but............
2004 Volvo penta 3.0 SX M2 Replaced shift and throttle cable now only sometimes goes into forward after a period of time. Fluid level is correct 2.1 qts synthetic volvo gear oil, shift cable adjusted correctly. works fine on hose out of water but may or may not go in after awhile and with a bang when in water. I have tried to take off the cable and manually assure full lever engagement into forward with still the same results. Does anyone know if this is a shimming issue or worn parts issue with the cone clutch? Not looking for miracles just a little guidance if available. Could it be something I can fix or will it require an expert Volvo mechanic and possible overhaul?????
