my 2003 F225 is very hard to shif out of FWD. It goes into gear smooth, in and out of Reverse smooth. Just really hafe to pull pretty hard to get it out of FWD.

I though it was due to when I instaleed the lower unit I did not have it in NEUT so I took off the lower unit made shure that it was in NEUT .Aligned to shift cable to mark of linkage but still it's hard to get out of FWD?

Do not remember having this issue last season. I did have to pull the power head this year and the shift rod but there is really nothing that I can think of during that proceed that could cause this problem with FWD?

This year motor was recalled for the replacement of the shift cable terminations in the motor. If you are the original Owner you should have received a recall notice.
