Tohatsu mfs 50 Shift issue

[Gerald]

It sounds like the shift linkage is out of adjustment. On older outboards, this was fairly easy to adjust to make the "neutral" fall in the center spot. I don't know what is required on the 50 hp engine. I have the 40 Hp engine on my boat. Great engine.


I would call the dealer and make an appointment so that they could correct this problem while you wait. Maybe they would allow you to watch so you could learn how this is done.
