1972 Evinrude 65 hp hydro electric.
Had water in the foot and would not shift. Decided that I would change all of the seals and gaskets, and that I would go ahead and do the water pump while I was at it (glad I ordered that impeller the old one was BAD).
Problem that I have is I can not get the little metal plunger on the bottom of the solenoids to drop back in the hole that I believe it is supposed to.
Is there an adjustment or anything?
I bought the wrong danged manual I got one for a hydro mechanical :facepalm: Solenoids click and and seem to work fine I just need to know how in the heck they reinstall. I am stumped is there a way to line them up? in the bottom of the bottom spring there is a plastic piece and a separate metal (plunger?) that it looks as if ball on the plunger slides and locks into the plastic piece and then the round flat part on the plunger slides down into a passage then it all slides into places and bolts down, however that round flat piece on the plunger doesn't appear to fit in that passageway so how do I do this?
PS I ONLY use type C/premium blend oil in the lower.
