Hello! I'm having issues with the shifter getting hung up in reverse on my boat when it is in the water. It shifts from neutral to reverse and forward to neutral however it does feel off slightly. The issue is shifting into reverse from neutral or from forward it gets hung up slightly and does not let you shift into neutral.

When the boat is turned off it does let you shift back into neutral. At times it does get stuck in reverse until you mess around with the shifter to get it back into neutral. The shifter shoe/dog has been changed with a brand new one, as well as a brand new upper unit outdrive seal, and brand new outdrive fluid.

The cable has been adjusted to take up some slack however it is still having the same issue as prior to being adjusted. Any insight on what parts it could be or what needs to get changed out to remedy the situation would be greatly appreciated since it was taken out on the water today with a buyer and still had an issue!

Thank you for your time!

Mark

Hi
you can adjust at the outdrive too...if it’s anything like my old 290/DPA/B. Other than that...it’s new cable time

QB,

I have already adjusted the cable. Absolutely no difference... I'm ordering a new cable.
