i have a 1974 johnson 115 <br />the motor runs great but shifting is a problem. when in the water, it shifts fine into forward and works properly, but when i try to put it into reverse, it doesn't want to go. it sounds like a grinding sound as if it is only half way into reverse. If i pull back ont the shifter really fast and jerk it back it will go into reverse but will not have throttle control. it will inly go really slow and i know it will go faster than that in reverse. also, the boat say out this winter and i accidently left the motor turned the wrong way so that the metal tube that goes through the motor was out the whole way instead of turning the motor the other way. now the steering is locked up and the motor will not move by hand or with the sterring wheel, both of which it did last sumer. any suggestions?<br /><br />thanks <br />geaz
