The button on the side of the motor ended up being a starter switch. The guy I bought the outboard from said it was a kill switch. So thats one thing tooken care of. Today im going to drop the lower unit to see if it has extensions on the parts or what I need to order to make it a short shaft. I took the motor out for a spin yesterday and while I was going full throttle after 10 minutes it would sound like the motor was going out of gear reving real loud. I lowered my speed and it would go back in to gear. It did this to me a few times and then I couldn't start the motor up again and had to get towed back to the dock by the local sheriffs. I have no clue where to start diagnose this problem. Any ideas any one? The last owner said it replace everything and he never had a problem with it. What a pain in the butt this is turning out to be.</p></blockquote><p></p>
