How All Outboards Shift: Mechanical & Digital.

[@GreatestGenerationCausedThis]

You do an excellent job of explaining the subject matter. I enjoy your clean-cut, traditional style of presenting the material. I may be wrong, I do not know you personally, but you seem like a good young man and apparently your parents did an excellent job of raising you and imparting civil and clean values upon you. Believe me, today to see a young man present this type of information without acting like a WWE lunatic is very nice and rare today on any platform. Relative to many others, you essentially stand alone and are a leader. At least that is the way this old Marine 'mustang' sees it. Okay, I will step down off my soapbox now. Thanks again.

[@albertokusmic9239]

Exceptionally clear and professional explanation. Thanks for sharing!

[@ianlloyd-edwards8590]

Even though I have a sailing boat, I always pick a tip up from you. I have fixed 3 outboards and sold on. And now I know why my boat engine throttle could be stiff. Hello from the UK.

[@yoster77]

Excellent explanation with visual examples

[@williamedwards6592]

Exactly what I needed as I am currently having an intermittent issue with my df 140 shifter getting stuck and not letting the boat turn over. Thank you

[@erocia8838]

i enjoy these type of videos thank you

[@giancarlobarzotti7886]

Thank you for your amazing knowledge and help explaining everything in great detail. Much appreciated.

[@crispernator]

Gday mate anther excellent explanation on how something works on your outboard next time i see a question about shifting on the yamaha forum australia i will get them to take a look at this video as it explains how it all works and some of the problems that may cause problems in engaging the gears brilliant video take care .

[@markdimaio8396]

Glad I found this video. I have the exact motor. It shifts fine into forward and reverse. However when I accelerate in reverse it pops out of reverse and makes ratcheting sound.

[@BornAgainBoating]

Yeah, this should help you out a lot, here's some more info that will also help you understand the process of the lower mechanically :) kzbin.info/www/bejne/eX-7fZt4iKmFj5Y

[@anthonypllu3864]

thanks for the video, i had my lower leg off to do a impeller and when i put it all back i noticed the clicking when in forward if i spun the prob backwards, this is the only video i could find that told me that that was normal, no one else ever mentions it, i thought i stuffed something up in the box

[@BornAgainBoating]

Lol ;) We've all been there until we know lol :)

[@Dinoxt12]

Good Stuff...Is it worth trying to lube both cables. Does it work or the effort .

[@connorbaird699]

Super informative thank you

[@alainregueira7825]

[@fishingfool2644]

Great video.

[@Farmer2492]

fantastic video your very knowledgeable

[@BornAgainBoating]

Thank you!

[@corywilson3549]

Push or pull to open control boxes refers to the throttle operation not the shift operation.

[@charlesmcarthur5722]

bro I just learn two things. 1 siftshaft goes to the clutch, dawg. the other, if won't go into reverse it's your clutch, dawg. joking aside, great video learned alot.

[@ttpersonalaccount]

Thanks!

[@BornAgainBoating]

Thank you so much for the super chat!!!

[@saltwaterjacksfishing]

Love your videos!! Is it ok to lubricate the shifting and throttle cables with yamalube?

[@jerryq1000]

[@MrVanTeacher]

[@AchikSarih]

Merci beaucoup ❤❤❤❤

[@daleb2786]

i have a mercury opti that grinds when either shifting in forward and or neutral is that normal?

[@zionmobile]

I have a 2017 mercury 150 EFI and after I run it for a certain amount of time the throttle gets stuck in forward gear. It is so odd. I have to run for 20 or more minutes on plane before it won’t go back into neutral. If I run for 5-10 min no issues going in and out of forward and neutral. Any thoughts why this happens?

[@zionmobile]

If I hook it up to a hose I can shift effortlessly into reverse forward neutral with no issues. I can’t get it fixed since the mechanic can’t replicate the issue

[@BornAgainBoating]

That's weird, but I would look at the shift shaft and stuff on the engine, something sounds like it is locking it in gear when in forward and loaded, if not loaded, (on land on a hose) there isn't the weight and force to lock it in place. But also maybe someting that is keeping the RPM up, hard to say, someone should be able to figure that out with some time looking at it :/

[@Gooselip]

My throttle goes in and out of gear but it's very stiff when applying throttle any tips

[@BornAgainBoating]

Nothing outside of the video and taking the throttle cable off and checking that system just like the shift system :) try and move it with the cable disconnected : )

[@Gooselip]

@BornAgainBoating thank you! Best boat channel by far! Love your content. Used the boat a lot today and it seems to be losening up. Might replace cables this fall. They are 10 years old now.
