yeah i had actually just said all that in the last post, i tried another lower i have with the same results, i do have a 3rd i am going to try but i may just buy a new drive upper and lower
so the drive went back on but still had the same problems, i took a video of the intermediate shift shafts throw, its suposed to be 12 degrees or less but mine is way off, i didnt put the new shift shaft in because the throw was off i figured a new shaft and upper shoe wont correct this... here...
thank you so much for your reply kenny, where the slide travels into the bell housing was full of grease, i guess i went a lil crazy with the grease... i did clean it all out but havent put the drive back on yet, i will try again today and see what happens and ill report my findings
so i guess i am going to replace the lower shift cable, while doing that someone on another forum suggested i do the itermediate shift arm, and the splined shift rod in the lower unit after watching my video so i guess i will replace those as well. hopefully this will correct my problem. i will...
thank you so much for your reply achris well, i tried to move it up the slot, however it was already at the farthest point, which i also thought was strange because a new cable was installed 4 years ago, along with all the bellows and gimbal bearing. i have the shift set up that is mounted...

i know and thats why i am here
, if you read more then the prop pitch statement, i am trying to identify the year of this engine, so i can figure all this out
ok, a guy out in cali who had the same boat ran a 23p prop and told me i would need to be somewhere in the 20s with my pitch, and anywhere under 14" in diameter
