[QUOTE="mephitic, post: 158917, member: 3983"] New to the board, been poking around for a bit now. Recently just purchased a 12' Valco U-12 boat with a Johnson 25 HP 25R70E motor on it. Ran it out on the lake yesterday for the first time to test things out. One thing I did notice is on the left (sitting in the boat looking at the motor) of the housing, there appears to be a missing shift handle or rod to put the motor into forward, neutral, and reverse. There is even a mounting spot it appears. I can still shift using the plastic handle, however I'm sure it would be easier is there was a handle of some sort. Is there truly indeed suppose to be some sort of a lever or handle here, and if so, where can I pick up another? Here is a pic of the left side: [img]https://i375.photobucket.com/albums/oo198/jadobbs/Valco%20Boat/25R70E.png[/img] [/QUOTE]
