Can someone fill me in on the easiest way to get to the shift rod linkage under the cowling. Can’t see any of the connections. Looks like you would have to drop the carbs to get to it. Surely I am wrong??? Help please.
Fastner is on port side. Need long extension, no need to drop carbs but can be a realbiotch to get to
fish today work tomorrow
there is a small bolt 3/8" i believe that goes through the shift rod and connects to the linkage
a long extension and a swivel socket make it much easier to remove
reinstallation will go much smoother if you use a bit of electrical tape and tape the bolt to the socket
Thanks for the comments. My issue is I can barely see where the rod comes into the housing and I cannot see the connection from the port side but I am asumming nothing has to be dropped to access from your comments. Am I correct?
