Re: johnson 1969 85 hp probleme with hydraulic shift

First make sure that when you shift to forward that there is no voltage on the green wire going to the lower unit. If there is, check the shift switch in the control box.<br /><br />Are you using premium blend or a gear lube specific for electric shifts?<br /><br />You will want to make sure the shift solenoid plungers are not hanging up and that the solenoids are working.<br /><br />Check the shift piston is not hanging up and is free to move back. Same with the spring, make sure it isn't broke.
