Perhaps your computer mapping? When was the last time your service shop
checked your mapping against current factory specs for a 99?

Perhaps Bill Grannis will weigh in on your problem with a simple(??), low
cost solution.

Good luck.

I have a 99 evinrude 225xi w/ intermittent shift problem.
Very hard shifting from F to N and to R.

A couple of times managed to get it into N and
RPMs went high (~2000rpm). One time
engine code light was set; but then went off.

I turn off boat and restart later and
NO PROBLEM! works great can't get it to repeat.
Hours later, problem returns. Very hard shifting
can't find N. Have to force it from F to R

Help... could this be shift interrupter ??

What is the procedure for adjusting all cables?
I have the manual but it refers to an accessory manual
which I don't have.

If the problem would persist, I am sure I can find it
but when it works well most of the time, it is
hard to diagnose.
