Johnson 8 starts but won't shift into gear

[lauriek1227]

Johnson 8 was running fine, then suddenly engine started screaming, all forward progress stopped. Engine will still start but will not shift into forward or reverse, and now can only start at a very high rev.

How about a little more intel. What year and model? What do you mean by "can only start at a very high rev"?<br /><br />c/6<br /><br />Hooty
