i have been trying to find the area in the manual where it explains the shift cable adjustment for a 94 omc cobra.it doesnt seem to be there.i also checked a factory cd i bought and i cant find it there either.i get the bellcrank at 90 degrees and adjust the cable to get the 75/8 at the plate end,but whe i put the drive on it all goes out the window.cable drags hard also when its all put together.its a new cable and all works well individually.can anyone help.another weekend is coming.its a 94 four winns 3.0 omc cobra.super low hours.very clean.stored 7 years.thanks.

Re: omc cobra

Toward the end of section 6. Do you have an actual OMC factory manual or are you using the SELOC one?

Get a real service manual. That's a SELOC CD. Go back to eBay, find an actual OMC Service manual for your year drive (it will cover one year only) and you will find everything you need!

i have printed out all the hastings pages and taken them out to the boat.thats where i got the other measurements.but the pic of setting the shift rod height is not working for me.is the measurement from the top of the v-notch plate to the case where the anode is.if so,mine is about 3/4 inch off.pic isnt very clear.thanks
