    1982 4.5hp reverse issue

    Currently there is no tilt pin and it is not in troll. I was just flicking between fwd and neutral seeing if there was any movement in the lock - there was not. Then I noticed the wire moves in and out of the ball that is located in the lock unit as I move it back and fourth by hand.

    1982 4.5hp reverse issue

    Can’t play just yet. Another 12hr shift tomorrow then I’m on my 5 days off. Another question. I’ve noticed my reverse lock isn’t working. I’m assuming the shaft should not slip in and out of the ball in the lock unit as mine is.

    1982 4.5hp reverse issue

    Ah ok now I’m on the same page as you. Sorry for the misunderstanding. Once I get off work this evening I’ll try again. I was just turning the shaft until I knew it was in forward and then reinstalled

    1982 4.5hp reverse issue

    Just to confirm, are you saying to remove shift shaft, Or is this just like I’ve done. Remove lower unit and put shaft into forward as well as gear selector in forward.

    1982 4.5hp reverse issue

    See the picture I posted above in the thread? Would that have anything to do with my issue I’m having ? I went home on my lunch break and tried both in neutral and couldn’t get it to seat.

    1982 4.5hp reverse issue

    I thought it should be neutral also. It isn’t. I’m going to get into the lower unit when I can

    1982 4.5hp reverse issue

    Thanks for your response, I go back to work tomorrow so I’ll dig into it again in my days off. Still curious, where that spring shown in the picture is, that’s in the forward position. Wouldn’t it make sense if it was in the position below the one currently?

    1982 4.5hp reverse issue

    Upon further inspection I’ve realized if I hold pressure on the reverse lever it’ll go into reverse. I’ve also come across this and it has me thinking this may be an issue. Although this is my first time picking at an outboard. There is like a cam on the lever linkage that has three groves...

    1982 4.5hp reverse issue

    Just picked up a 1982 4.5hp. Runs great, just experiencing an issue with the reverse not working and neutral and forward are both forward gears. I removed the lower unit, made sure the lever was as in forward and slid the unit back together. Nothing changed. Any ideas?
