Hey guys I have a 1968 starcraft starchief with a mercruiser 120 and a pre alpha outdrive. Last fall I replaced all the bellow and the shift cable. I followed the instruction of how to adjust the shift cable from mercstuff.com. I can get the lower unit to go into forward and neutral however when I try to get it adjusted for reverse(while somebody turning the prop clockwise) all I get is a clicking noise from the outdrive. I have pulled the shift cable all the way out and the clicking get a little louder. It seems like it wants to go into gear just not enough slack in the cable to allow it. Reverse gear does work because when I have the outdrive off I made sure that it would go into forward and reverse. Are there any other cable/items that I need to check?
