I'm new to boating and new to the forum so I apologize if this is a repeat question. I?ve inherited what I am thinking is a 1971 9.8 mercury 110 outboard motor with a Thunderbold ignition. I have noticed, with the motor off that I cannot shift the gear selector into reverse. I can shift from neutral to forward. Is this normal, is there a lock that I?m missing or is this something more ominous that I would need to get looked at?
