Just fitted a new gear cable and had the leg off to change the impellor, the cable appears to be too short does anyone know an ajustment that i may have missed?
Cheers
I the gearchange shaft on the leg is a spline type, then you may have refitted it a notch or 2 out from where it was when removed, ie the gearbox is in forward or reverse and the linkage in neutral.
I don't think there is any spline on this gear change, it pulls up and down with neutral in the middle, unless there's a false neutral which allows the length of the select shaft to out of alignment? the cable is a new yamaha one but with the morse control in neutral the cable just won't reach the gear select arm when it's in neutral.
Hi, I adjusted the connector to their realistic maximum at the morse end, leaver end and on the connection rod but still a long way out, I'll check against the cable removed for original length, I bought a y38 cable. then I'll remove the leg to see if the rod has any other positions, it seems as if the rod is out of the leg too far so I'll check the 3 positions FNR and work back to the morse box.
I set up the gear lever by extending the connecting rod in the leg, on checking the previous cable wasn't a Yamaha so it may have been different. All OK now. thanks
