Hello,
I have a 79 55 hp evinrude. I could not drive any faster than an idle or it would jump out of gear in both forward and reverse. I tried adjusting the shift cable so it would go further in forward and less in reverse, but I still had the problem in both gears.
I dis***embled the unit (that was difficult, had to make my own pullers) expected to see major gear carnage, but instead saw only slight wear on the forward teeth of the slider gear. Looks like almost no wear on the reverse side.
Those forward parts seem to be unavailable anyway. What to do........
Any thoughts or suggestions?
