I have an O'Day 25 with the Vire 7 hp inboard 2 cycle engine. The transmission gets stuck in gear. Removing the shift linkage does not remedy the problem.Has anyone had a similar problem ? Any help would be appreciated.

Shift throw

Don, I have not had a chance to play with that particular engine, but sometimes I've found lack of shifting is due to insufficient cable throw. I once had an autmobile transmission drive me nuts until I discovered that the clutch linkage was not actuating the throwout arm. Check the simple stuff first. Justin - O'day Owners' Web

shift

Hi. I also have had probelems with the shifting on the similar 15hp omc saildrive. my dad had an O'Day s8 4 years but recently sold it. we rented another, older O28 that didn't have the luxury of a deisel inboard. That boat had a tendancy to SLIP OUT of gear. -Ben McAndrew
