    Can't shift after bellows/lower shift cable change with Bravo 3.

    Thanks Problem has to be in the shift cable install or it's routing. To install with throttle in reverse should be very difficult. REV requires the cable to be retracted closer to the bell housing. Having it that close it would be extremely difficult if not impossible. REV requires the cable...

    You should have codes with no TPS sweep. Not liking what your dealer is saying. Most the sensors run off a 5V reference voltage. Checking the TPS is easy enough with a ohm meter

    My boat run slowly. 120HP,2.5L,1989

    Your entire motor is tired. If 100 is accurate then the motor is basically running on 3 cylinders. The 100 cylinder is working but not much power is coming from it. The other 3 are tired also with 120 and then add in blow by and if motor was mine I would rebuild it

    Turn the boat, kill the engine.

    Hey @kenny nunez Not a OMC dude but dies when turning I'm thinking electrical If it was a Merc I look at shift interrupter and see if it's moving when being turned. The OMC does have a similar item and maybe same kind of thing
