The gear shift lever that goes through the motor housing has come adrift - it just falls out! And then of course, the boat goes nowhere.... It connects to a linkage/connector inside the motor housing which then goes into the motor (see photo).
It looks like some kind of retainer washer has come off.
Has anyone worked on something similar to this? Are they all the same? How could I remedy it - are spare parts likely to be available or would it be better to measure it up and try to find / make something to fit?
Thank you!
Looking DOWN into the motor - you can see the lever at the bottom going through the housing, then you can see a groove around the section in the housing, then it inserts into a connector in the centre of the photo.
