removed lower unit to inspect water pump for customer - after reassembly owner ran boat for a couple of days and now complains boat will not go into reverse. I was careful not to change anything on shift shaft and cable. Rode and went fishing with customer after repair.<br />Today customer said engine went into reverse we he used at dock - but when he pulled it back to neutral it stayed in reverse.<br />Thanks<br />Ed

It's possible that the adjustable trunion is slipping out of its clamp socket at the engine.
