Hi all,
I hope everyone is safe and healthy?
Just to get ahead of a potential transmission problem on my '97 MKIII with 650 hours on the engine. We re-launched the boat last Saturday and everything checked out beautifully. All fluids at optimal levels. Yesterday, while I was checking the shaft packing, I was shifting between forward and reverse, carefully, and noticed that once or maybe twice, the trans did not go into reverse as quickly as it normally does. There was maybe a 2 second delay. Incidentally, I replaced both control cables and adjusted the linkages last Autumn. So, no problem there.
Before I waste any precious cleaning and setup time, has anyone had this happen?
