I am trying to remove the lower unit to do an impeller on a 1989 Evinrude 9.9 but it will not go into reverse so I can get access to the bolts to disconnect the shift rod. I have tried what the Machinist recommends by pulling on the starter chord and that turns the flywheel the prop but while it easily goes back and forth between neutral and forward, it just wont' shift into reverse. It has plastic parts and I don't want to force it.
What do I try next ? I need to get a socket in there to turn the horizontal bolts.
