I just bought a boat with a 1986 90 HP Force outboard; it did fine the first couple times out. Then it wouldn't shift at all & I found it lost a nut on top of the shift cable. I replaced the nut & it shifted fine both directions in the driveway with muffs on. I took it out yesterday and it only grinds trying to get into reverse. I'm a newbie with outboards, I'm coming from a big block I/O, PLEASE HELP!
