Hey everyone!
Well here we go again, another question about shifting on an OMC. Here is my spin on my problem. I have had the boat for a few years and just last year I have began to have problems with my boat stahling while shifting in to Fwd. It does not happen all the time, but enough to be very annoying. My thought it is a ESA problem and plan on replacing soon(any help on finding one is appreciated). Before this came about I noticed that the boat is hard to get into nuetral from the forward gear. It is even a little hard to get from N to R. On the other hand N to F, is easy. No grinding occurs at anytime. One last thing, my brother-in-law, owned the boat prior to me. He says it has shifted tough for as long as he remembers. It also appears that my shift cable has been replaced, because it is red. How do I know what is wrong. I have read a ton of threads here and read the Hastings information. I also have a Seloc and OEM service manual.
Help please.
