    Shift Linkage - Johnson Seahorse 9 1/2 HP

    maybe check a few things before... see shift coupler. make certain it is mated properly see top side has an adjustement to secure and line up the shift lever However this adjustment does nothing for gearbox shifting, where you may have worn clutch dog ears or mating gear notches. (see...
