That stainless linkage lever where the shift interupt switch mounts too . . . is very very loose. (like a abu garcia 5500 handle that's caught 5000 fluke). Lower Unit will engage forward and reverse when shifted manually up and down, so I know the lower is good. But that linkage piece is so loose that you can have forward and nuetral . .. or reverse and neutral (and sometimes only neutral) when shifted from the control cables end of the linkage.
MJ - You're gonna need a new motor :) Start saving $50 a fluke trip. You've got two great powerheads, but some shiat saltwater mids and lowers. If you can locate a freshwater mid/lower (or a pair of them) you're going to be all set for the next 10 years. I call you tomorrow morning. I wonder if those powerheads will bolt up to a 200/225 Ficht mid and lower.
