Default bravo 1 hesitation into gear??

my one bravo 1 when putting into forward gear had a slight hesitation , then at one point i put it in forward and it did not go in so i pulled it back to reverse and went right in, then back to forwar and not in so i bumped the throttle up to about 1500 and it clunked and went in, ever since it has been working perfect with no issues.

Thanks

Definately cable adjustment. On a stock cable bracket that is bolted to the exhaust riser, its the bottom cable. Break the lock nut loose, and pull the cable out of the bracket. Then you can screw the cable end in or out to adjust. From what your discribing, you have to back the cable end out. Just did this yesterday!

Mine is a twin set up so when i put in forward the one cable moves forward towards the cockpit and the other moves back towards the transom this is the one i need to adjust so which way would i go to adjust.
