When in forward gear it locks counter clockwise

So reverse is opposite?

False. The dog gets locked in when switched to gear and won't move either way

Hey great video and very informative as always! I a quick question, my outboard when going into reverse won’t click in as usual so the RPM increases as I put back the throttle and then she clicks into reverse at high RPM. Have you any experience or solution with this problem? Iv only had the boat on the water two days and my heart is broken 😅🫣

Those wires are just to control your throttle cables but i believe you have a bad clutch dog. It may be cause by adjusted higher RPM and by shifting into Fwd gear it grinds your clutch and wore down over time. Hope this helps!

Is it difficult to install a new clutch dog?

@dpetersontube if your familiar with your outboard lower unit it will be a breeze. Otherwise take pictures, place it down orderly or whatever it takes to remember how to put it together. Goodluck!

@@yellamamba4554 drain LU oil, remove prop, 5 bolts hold LU in place, but to get prop shaft out I will need to remove the shift lever rod in front of the water pump assembly - correct? If so, does that come out fairly easily? And should it be in gear or in neutral? Thanks.

What does this mean is wrong with the motor because mine is doing the same thing and I would like to fix it?
@dpetersontube2 жыл бұрын
the gear cables get stretched out over time and occasionally need minor adjustments to engage fully in forward and reverse
