I have a '75 El. shift OMC.
The shifter sw inside the binicle is toast.
Is there a new binicle that will work.
Or do I have to find a '75 binicle
Thanks

Re: New shifter?

If you can get a part number off the switch or wire lead that goes to it,you should be able to find one..
Doug Russell or Hastings should have a diagram.

That is what I did. Toggle in the "Up and Out" hole, in between the tilt switches. It works well, but I am afraid to let anyone else pilot my boat because they might forget.
