Shift rod

[RedNeckDeluxe]

Ok I got the lower unit oil grade figured out but now another thing is I saw a video online showing how to set the position of the shift rod by twisting it. Do I have to do the same with mine? I have twisted it a few times but not sure if it needs to be in a certain position...1981 50 hp evin

If you threaded it in out more than a full turn then will have to reset it according to correct measurement listed in service manual.
