Thought I was done repairing!
« on: April 21, 2009, 09:12:38 PM »
 Lost most of last season for major repairs, including , replacing the lower shift cable to lower unit . Went out today to get her ready only to find that the motor sounds great but, it once again won't shift.  rgmn rgmn rgmn rgmn rgmn
What could have possibly changed since last season???  Everything was working perfectly. Has this happened to any of you???

Lube it up real good. My old Evenrude used to get tight. If I lubed it up and kept working it back and forth it was ok.
This too shall pass.
