I have completed work on then bottom end of my 1990 40HP, I have replaced all of the seals and the water pump. I removed the shifter shaft to replace the seals. My problem is I do not know how to reinstall it. Today I tried about 5 times. I can get forward gear, but neutral and reverse are not in the proper location. I should have counted the number of turn to remover the the shifter. I am sure there must be a better way. What am I missing here other than the factory manual? Currently, I can not locate my after market manual! Too much down time waiting for parts! I am assuming that I just need to properly adjust the shift shaft.
