Shifting Into and Out of Forward /Reverse Very Stiff

[LeeDowney]

Hey guys. I've searched the forum for this but can't find any answers. Lately my throttle shifter has become stiff to shift into reverse and forward. Is there a lubrication point either on the motor or on the shifter control unit itself? Never any salt water use. Thanks for the replies.

There isn't a lube point. We have have had a bunch of boats and have seen all kinds of throttle issues, but usually with cheaper boats. When the throttle gets difficult to move or to shift in, there is usually a problem with the throttle assembly itself. If you are near a dealer, get them to deal with it since you should still be under warranty.

I recall reading something about the assembly or a mounting bracket adjustment.

I think there is a tension adjustment in the throttle but I can’t remember where I saw that either.

Wow. Something must be physically wrong for a 2021 to be causing trouble. Mine is still like the day I got it. I would definitely talk to a tech if someone else doesn't chime in with a solution.
