Bravo shifting ??
 

My drive seems to shift into forward normally. When I shift into reverse there seems to be a second or two delay between the shift and when the gears engage. Anybody ever have this problem?

Yes, just befor the upper gears and clutch go bad :evilb: :evilb: Seriously, I hope its nothing but a cable adjustment :D

it means usually one of two things,

A) cable needs adusted
B) cone clutch wear

Thanks guys, hopefully it's the cable. How hard is it to adjust? I noticed too when I drained the gear oil at the end of the season this year it was REAL stinky and a little darker than usual. The drive has over 600 hours on it with plenty of flight time. :D

You might want to send that drive over to moffitt

If I were you it would probobly be a good idea to dissasemble and check the bearings and gears my guess is that the gears are pitted and the bearing are prob pretty well warn along with the cone clutch, it all adds up to a drive problem.. and in the future you may want to concider changing the drive lube a little more often.....

Its called the "mystery shift" around here and its almost always a warning that the drive is turning in its notice....have it gone through. :D :p

:D :D

Just like the Fram oil filter commercial. You can pay now....or alot more later $$$$$.

Better to do it now, broken boats in June suck. :)

You've gotten some good advice here. I'd be really shocked if it was just a cable adjustment.

If we found nothing on the magnet plug ????..... can we assume it`s a cable adjustement ???....and like i said in another thread ..


I hope it`s just cable :rolleyes: ....
