Hello again, back for more advice.<br /><br />My 1978 Terry bass boat has a 85 Johnson Javelin motor. This boat was trashed when I got it, and I am slowly making headway getting it back in shape. There are 2 big problems that are standing in my way. <br /> One is the shifter, someone has put an Evinrude shifter on it and it is crap. the ignitions messed up, I can't adjust it out where it will engage reverse, parts worn out inside, its just ate up!! I am thinking on a new shifter, any advice on this? Or should I try to find a used one? Do shifters come with cables?<br /><br />Second big problem is that when I got it the foot had no gear oil in it. I put a quart in it and warmed it up and found it to be leaking from out behind of prop.<br />I have found the kit online to fix but was wondering if someone could give me a copy of the motor diagram with parts. (Especially the foot area) So, if I attempt to fix myself that I will have something to fall back on if parts start falling out when I take apart. <br />Last little thing I forgot is my trolling motor. I finally got it wired up but sometimes when the blades stops just in the right spot, it will not start again without a little help. It's like there may be a bad spot in the brushes. I have not had it in the water yet and used it under a strain, but I'm hoping this will work this out. Because it seems to be very stout when held back.<br /><br />All help VERY much appreciated!!!
