If it was a shift rod height adjustment, it would normally be hard to go into forward or reverse, not both normally. When in nuetral, the shift arm at the powerhead should be centered in it's travel. If it is the adjustment is correct. The other thing to look at for having trouble coming out of gear is teh shift interrupt switch. If it doesn't kill the engine during shifting, you have to move the shifter past center before it will pop out of gear.

I'll look at that tomorrow. I should mention that all my testing was done on land with the engine off. Also as of right now there is no interupter switch installed on my boat. I just ordered one and I will install it. Must've malfunctioned and the PO removed it.
I gave new shift cables but I'm hoping to hold off on installing them until over the winter when I clean up the rigging.

The shift interupter is part of the shift linkage on the engine. Without it the linkage would be REALLY sloppy, and I'm surprised you would be able to get it into gear at all.

The linkage is all still there. Only the switch itself isn't there. The linkage was actually extremely tight. Too tight infact, I had to sand the shaft with 1000 grit sandpaper and clean out the hole that the shaft rides in.

The shiftrod is set properly.tge engine shifts in and out of gear well. The only issue I have is to get to neutral I have to move the shifter about 1/8" past neutral to get it out of foreword. I'm going to take it out Sunday and see how it runs. I may change the cables this week and see if it works better.
