Left engine throttle will not go out of reverse
 
Sand or something stuck in the bucket. Kill it, jump in the water and jiggle the bucket left/right to see if you can get whatever flecks to fall out. Also, make sure reverse cable is still attached and nothing else is loose. You should be able to rotate the reverse gate from forward to reverse by hand behind the boat, when functioning properly.

Yup. Don't force the throttle, or you can snap the cable. Just find that little pebble that is hanging it up.

Yes I didn’t do that pushed on it just a little, but, didn’t force it?
 
Question, when someone post “at” help is there a way to get notified instantly? I’d love to be a member to be there in a time of need.

If you are a member who is stuck on the water or otherwise needs quick help to be able to enjoy your boat please include [USERGROUP=9]"at" HELP[/USERGROUP] in the body of your posting which will alert all members of the group. (Be sure to put it in the body of the post NOT the title!)
 
You are freakin awesome!! It worked!!
Also, as a side note to you and others that read this thread, your original post put the AT-Help request in the title, it has to be in the text body for it to alert the team who's signed up to get notified when people ask for help. Which is why @BigAbe75 replied with it in the body text 3 minutes after you posted your help request (Thanks Abe!)

The HELP team is one of the coolest "features" of our membership! Thanks everyone for always being ready to help out!!!!
