I think the motor is a 1985 module as my book shows the 1986 serial# starting at A922171

Re: 35 Mercury shift shaft

this is my sons boat he is still in school so I am going to tackle this project for him . I had a marina check it out and was told 3 of the 4 motor mounts are broken and that caused the shift shaft to break. What do the motor mounts look like or are they calling them something else in the parts cat. needless to say a 17 year old does not have the $ to fix so back to dad to help out if I can
