Hi all. I bought a second hand mariner engine and after sticking it on the boat I found it very hard to shift having removed the lower unit I found it changes gear no problem however when I disconnect the control cables and try to turn the upper gear selector shaft it takes a massive amount of force. Its only a guess but I think the upper selector shaft is bent my question is how do I remove it ? cant pull it down due to connection on top and cant see how I can push it up as the engine is in the way
Engine details
2000 Mariner 90HP 3 cylinder
Model number 90PTO
S/n 0p084533
Thank you
