    When you put the lower unit back on make sure the washer is on top of the bumps on the shaft and get it thru the loop of wire that operates the reverse locks other wise the engine will stay locked down in foward

    That washer is missing. Parts 36 and 37 directly ride on top of that reverse lock actuator wire…..but thanks for the reminder that there should be a washer there – I’ll find a suitable stainless one. A previous owner must have lost it. I see Sierra makes that washer.
