Re: Cannot get boat to go into forward or reverse after put lower unit back on

With the above post being said does this mean I should take the lower unit off again and re-do the cable tie. I am wondering if this might keep me from being able to get the correct forward, neutral, reverse adjustment. The biggest problem I am having is that at the four turns out the rod is not high enough to line the hole up on the coupler to put the pin in. I am having to actually pull up a little on the rod to get it to line up which takes it out of neutral. If I am understanding you right then it is possible that the current position of the cable tie on the bellows is in the wrong place and not lined up with the grove on the rod?

Well I think I finally got it adjusted right. Thank you Frand you are the man! Tested it on the muffs and everything seems to be okay. Next is to test on the water, hopefully everthing is right. Thank you Frank you are the man!
