    1987 4hp 2stroke E4BRHCUD Neutral problems

    Good news. Bad news. I pulled the differential part and I believe I found the problem. The tip of the clutch spring has broken off. How I manage to do that is beyond me. I also found the tip of the broken spring at the bottom. So I'm assuming I'd flip it to neutral. It would not go. If I...
