I have rebuilt my lower unit and installed a new shift shaft, carrier seals and the like... I am not sure of the positioning of the shift cam in relation to the shift mechanism on the engine. I am installing a new side-mount shifter and new cables as well, so right now, the shift linkage is free on the motor... Right now, with everything hooked up/lower unit installed, no matter where I move the shift arm on the motor, my prop shaft seems to always be in forward gear and can't seem to find neutral.
I'd like to post pictures, but that usually poses challenges for me and not the easiest site to do so. How should I set to cam, where should I have the shift linkage slide (forward, middle, or back), and is there anything else I may have misaligned??
