Hello
This is my first boat (1954 Feathercratf Deluxe Runabout) and the engine is a 1955 Evinrude big Twin 25HP. When in neutral, it sometimes goes into gear for a split second. This is more pronounced at higher RPM, like when adjusting the carb while running in a tank. I want to clear this up before bringing the family on board again
I tried to adjust the shifting lever on the starbord side of the powerhead (a bolt and a screw) but without success. I'd rather open the lower gearcase as a last resort to check the clutch dog. I assume the shifting rod connection in the middle of the lower unit might be the problem. What do you guys think?
