THANKS FOR CLEARING THAT UP FOR ME ,I DIDN'T NO WHAT THAT WAS ......DO
YOU THINK IT WILL HURT TO RUN WITHOUT IT?? AND ONE OTHER THING THE
HOSE THAT GOES AROUND MY SHIFT CABLE THROUGH THE TRANSOM IS BUSTED AND
POORING WATER IN ,,,CAN I GET THAT PART WITHOUT THE WHOLE CABLE KIT
You'll find it's a bitch to shift into neutral, also I believe, very
hard on the gears in your lower end. As for the hose try these guys:

I order parts from them, even after shipping and GST up here (Canada) it
still costs less than the local dealers.
Cheers
