I just re-powered with it, using the same throttle and shift cable with out changing them, meaning adjustments. I water tested the motor today and found out I have no reverse... on the control box i barely move it and its in forward. how do I re-adjust to gain reverse again ? Is it the top or bottom cable ? do i play with trunion ?

disconnect the top one..move your shifter into neutral. loosen the 3/8 bolt that holds your cables in place.adjust trunion till end of cable lines up with the shifter..hook it all back up...disconnect throttle cable, move throttle linkage till it hits but does not move the plastic cam up top, adjust trunion to line up with throttle linkage, then hook it all back up. tighten up the 3/8 bolt.
