I acquired a 1969 Johnson 25 horsepower tiller outboard a couple of years ago. It runs great and has been used quite frequently since I bought it. The last few times I have taken it out, the motor does not want to stay in gear upon take off from idle. For a few trips I was able to hold the lever forward in gear and take off then let go, it seemed once the motor was tacking enough rpms this problem did not occur. Well the last time I took it out I could not run more than 20 or 30 feet before it popped into neutral.
I know very little about this outboard. A buddy of mine said something about adjusting the linkage? I am not sure how to do that.
I would greatly appreciate any help!!!
Thanks, Justin
