I’ve tried adjusting the cables but cant get the 6”s in forward and still be able to put it in reverse. I messed around with it for quite awhile but the best I could get it to do was shift nicely into reverse and just grind in forward (or viseversa). I believe I need new cables or??? I have an 88 V20 with an mercruiser I/O. Where do I get the cables and are there any tutorials on how to do it? I’ve attached a picture of the room I have to work with. It doesn’t seem like much room to me but I’ve never done this. Any help is appreciated.
