Hi ,
Seems I have lots of maint issues going on, but working through them. J150EXEUC . When I first arrive at boat after it has been sitting for a few days, start it up and then try to back out of slip, it is very difficult to shift into reverse. The throttle seems very stiff and hard to move. If I shift into forward a few times first and then into reverse, no problem. I am thinking the shift cable is starting to seize up. I assume if it is the cable, I should replace both the shift and the throttle cable? It is an original cable from 1997.
Thanks for all the great advice here
