i've changed the water pump in the drive, made sure that the shifter was in foward and lined the tab on the drive straight ahead as it says in the manual. started it and made sure it shifted into reverse and forward. took it to the water and now have a problem of every time i shift it into gear it stalls (dock side). i can watch the interrupter shift up the y plate and it stays there when shifting. so i am pretty sure the lower shift cable is no good.
at the end of last year it stalled on me when backing it up and then going into forward. so i just want to verify that it seems to be a cable problem, as i read dons s article on how it works and it says it only works to get out of gear and with load on prop.and second question is does any one have a part number for the kit. the outdrive is a alpha one, first generation(studs to mount lower housing on) part number on valve cover tag is oc546173. and if you would know the gear ratio, and can you remove the boots without damaging (due to the sealer the use) or should i get all new ones. any help would be appreciated does any one know were i can get a engine alignment tool or the spec's so i can make one
