Well firstly let me say thank you again to all the help you guys gave me previously and I now have a running engine. I do however have a couple of other issues that I hope you can help me with. I have a 1977 Johnson 50 Model No. 50ESL71S S/N E3468275, which has electronic shift. The trottle movement did not seem to be correct so I took apart the control box and I discovered 2 things. 1. The trottle cable seem to slide through the plastic attacment that is joined to the trottle control lever. It would seem that this is not supposed to happend as the lever movement is not then translated to the engine via the cable. Does anyone have any idea how to fix this or where I can get a new calbe. 2. The Forward / Neutral / Reverse switch which is supposed to change as you go past center on the control lever does not. Is this switch supposed to be sprug loaded or something, because when the control lever is in the center position the switch which has a small round top on the arm sits in the grove at the bottom of the control lever. When you move the control lever forwards the switch is moved into the FWD position, however when the lever is brought back past center and into reverse the switch does not return to center or go into the reverse position.<br />I am sorry about the length of this post but if you have any information it would be greatly appreciated. I have the manual but it does not seem to cover my controller in any great detail.
