I have a 1977 Johnson 70hp. Not sure about the run / tilt lever on this thing.
When I have the lever in the run position, the motor is locked in place no matter whether it is in forward or reverse.
When the lever is in the tilt position, the motor swings up no matter what gear its in.
Isn't it supposed to allow the motor to swing up in forward incase I hit something, and lock it down when in reverse?
