Engine Bracket & ESA Troubleshooting Part 2 - Shifter Rod Adjustment - OMC Cobra Volvo Penta SX
Part 2 goes over the shifter rod adjustment. Not checking the shifter height could lead to forward/reverse engagement issues. The height setup is probably the hardest part because the rod height is in the thousandths. I adjusted mine at the following heights and was able to get forward/reverse to engage: 6 - 15/16 to 7 - 1/8 with no issues. Word of advice: install the stern drive and test before you use a new gasket/gasket compound. You will find forward engagement issues the closer your rod height gets to 7-1/4. Please keep in mind there are two different shift detents. Mine is measured using the new style shift detent.
