I have this problem. I lost the washer for the shift shaft though and am not sure what size to get. When I put it together I lock it in forward gear but keep the throttle in neutral. This may be wrong. When i do this though I'd i do it without a washer the throttle moves freely but will not go into gear. When I use a washer the throttle gets jammed up. Do I just retry with a washer with the throttle in forward? Just asking cuz I'm sick of taking it apart. And can't find a proper diagram of what size washer and how it sits on the shaft. method
