After winter storage, first time out I find I have no reverse. Pulled cover, checked shift cable and mechanics and find them to be working properly. Pulled nut off of connector rod (at engine) to disconnect cable from shift arm mechanism. Started engine, (with shift arm disconnected) and manually shifted from neutral to forward, all fine, forward prop, plenty of power. Shifting to reverse, prop turns just a tiny bit, but not with any power. Before I drop lower unit, any further suggestions about any potential "simple" solutions, or further checks? I'm concerned about gear replacement or clutch replacement on my own, and may turn over to a qualified mechanic if that seems to be the likely problem. Any help/suggestions appreciated.
