I have solved all of my problems except one. I am so close to being on the water. I ran the engine for 2 hours from 800 rpm and up. The issue I am having now is the engine will not run in gear. My mixture screw is turned one full turn out from all the way in.
The engine will be at idle 800 rpm I will go to put it into forward and the rpm will start to drop and I give it more throttle to maintain near 800 I can slowly get the prop spinning but eventually the further I put it into fwd the engine will stall regardless of the amount of gas being given. The same result in reverse.
My assumption is I should be able to go in and out of forward and reverse at 800 rpm idle without playing with throttle to much, then giving gas when I want to have momentum.
I have never taken off top of transmission box and have seen a few videos and it looks rather scarey down there. It feels like the transmission is just putting to much tension on the shaft. What are my possible issues?
