1980s Merc wont go into reverse help
#2
Well, let's see if we can figure this out. First, what size motor are we talking about? Second, when you say it won't go into reverse, does the lever move into reverse but the transmission doesn't shift? Or does the lever not go into reverse?

If the lever is hanging up, the problem may be in the control. I had a problem like that last year and had to replace a cam inside the control box. If the lever moves freely, then the trouble lies someplace in the motor.

Post up the size and serial number to help us out.
