New to the forum, did some searching, but couldn't find definitive answers...what are possible causes of reverse 90 model 40HP Evinrude not working? How about troubleshooting. Any advice appreciated. KP

Re: 1990 40HP forward gear only?

Welcome to iboats kpudden.

First thing is pull the hood off the motor on the right side(drivers side) of the engine you should see 2 cables, 1 of these is the shift and the other the throttle, move the throttle at the helm and see if both cable ends move.

If only one cable moves you will need to replace your shift cable, if both move repost and we will go from there.
Oh start at the start ,is this a remote control motor or tiller?
