All,
I'm looking into changing over to a dual lever (throttle/clutch) control in my 1982 Catalina 30. The engine is an A4 (obviously) M-5101 (1982 also? original?) #205178.
I'm not happy with the way my reversing gear is set, at almost maxed out, to get anything out of the reverse. My logic is that if I could engage the reversing gear completely and THEN apply throttle that should allow me to turn back the reversing gear to a more central setting. Sound wacky ? or would replacing the band around the reversing gear be a better approach?
So far the only model I've found was around $500-$600 which is too expensive for something with such a simple function, that may not even solve my problem.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
