The iboats forum moderators are excited to announce that at this time it appears the iboats forums posting pictures function is working once again. Though we cannot promise for how long, we're hoping for indefinitely.
OK, here's the deal. My 1975 20 hp outboard merc shifts into reverse if I put the shifting handle to the "F" position, which is the forward position of the handle. It shifts into forward if I put the handle to the "R" position, which is the rearward position of the handle. It shifts perfectly...
I have a 1975 Merc 200, 20 hp outboard that goes forward when the shift lever is placed in the reverse position, and goes reverse in forward. It runs fine otherwise. I guess it got switched somehow when the impeller was replaced. Will it hurt anything to run it like that?
Hello all. I'm brand new here.
My 1975 Mercury 200, 20 hp outboard motor goes forward in reverse, and reverse in forward.
The boat is new to me and today was the first time I had it out. I replaced the impeller before I put it in the water because I didn't know what kind of shape the old one...
