I have a 105 Chrysler without the throttle & shift cables attached. They are there but not hooked up. The Clymer manual is no help.

How do I position the throttle shaft and shift lever when re-attaching the cables?

I'm having trouble understanding how the neutral knob is supposed to work...

I know you pull the knob out to disconnect the shift cable for neutral warm up. But then there is this "cam" or "neutral shift lever" that still blockes the "tower shaft arm" from rotating when you try to push the throttle control forward during neutral wam up.

It seems the tower shaft arm & neutral shift lever are already in contact with each other when in neutral, so that when you pull the knob to dis-engage the shift lever and only the tower shaft is able to move, it can't move since it is already up against the neutral shift lever.

I'm assuming the forward control lever box is already set up correctly and the ends of the cables are adjusted properly, or very close to it.

The motor was simply un-hooked from everything (cables & wires) and sitting in the cockpit when I bought the boat.
