Hello, is it the external shift handle you want to replace?
Then you'll have to remove the engine block from the driveshaft housing.
To do so: Drain the engine oil.
Disconnect the throttle cable from the carburettor.
Disconnect the start-in-gear cable from the recoil starter housing.
Disconnect the fuel lead at the fuel connector
Disconnect the choke puller at the carburettor.
Disconnect the white and black wire from the stop button at the engine-block and engine wires.
Remove 6 bolts holding the engine-block to the driveshaft housing.
Lift the engineblock.
The shift lever is fixed with a M6 bolt in the front-top of the driveshaft housing. You'll need a new gasket, Part Num 803508-9
Yes, it will be corroded. Just have to find where.
Look to remove the cable from the link arm in the motor.
Can you now set the throttle lever in fwd and rev? Does the cable moves? If Yes, it's in your engine that you have trouble. If no, disconnect cable at the throttle lever and re-check...
If it's the engine: Remove the gearhousing. If now you have movement, the gear housing is stuck ( water inside that has corroded everything, good luck)
If still no movement, check the linkage, you'll have to remove the engine block from the exhaust plate.
The best is to find a service manual to get the right way to disassemble and reassemble...
Depending on the year motor, make sure the throttle is in the neutral position, drop the lower unit and the motor foot should come off, will probably take some wiggling and with the age of the motor, possibly a few light taps around the cavitation plate with a mallet would be helpful.
