Mercury 25HP Shallow Drive Lever

[paul ferraris]

Hi All

Need some help please. I have to replace a broken shallow drive lever on my motor (see attached). I am having a few problems reinserting the new part as some springs need to be attached. I am having difficulty finding out exactly where the small spring should be attachd to the lever. I cannot seem to get the spring in the correct place on the part. Can anyone help at all?

Regards
Paul

This is the part and associated spring-cant get spring in correct place to do its job!

look on one of the dealers that are on this site (blackdogmarine) parts list it will show you where the bits go, and how they go.

It's difficult to tell where the spring goes from the parts diagram and the workshop manual.. I've done it once, luckily had another to look at. Couldn't tell you how it goes now though.

Right then !

Hope this helps -and the engine overall - hopefully the same . You can probably read the year etc off the plate on the leg to be sure.

They can be a pain to set up!. See attached photo if it helps. Once you have done about 100 in a row on a production line you will find it so easy!

Thank you for all the effort involved. I really appreciate it and am now clear on what to do.
