I bought my boat with a recently rebuilt A4. After correcting a few problems, I got the engine running. Since then I have not had a single problem. The A4 is very reliable.
When the rebuilt A4 was installed, the outer housing of the shift cable was mounted to a thin bulkhead. When shifting, the bulkhead would flex, and has started to crack. I am in the process of fixing the bulkhead and I'm wondering why the shift cable housing is mounted to a bulkhead. I would think the logical mount is a bracket attached to the engine.
What is the usual attachment point for the shift cable housing? Does anyone sell an engine mounted bracket?
Thanks,
