I have a 1996 GTX i bought used a year ago. When I shft in Reverse, everything works fine, I then go to shift it back into foward and accelerate and it pops out of gear. It only happens on initial accerlation. If I hold it in Foward then accelerate it is fine, I can then let go of it, it only bothers when I go from an idle to accelerating. I was curious if there was an adjustment I can make or if it needs a new shifting linkage or what? It only has 85 hours on the jet-ski, any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

There is a mechnical lock that has broken. My guess is the roll pin has fallen out and the part that locks it is gone. Look at Babbits online for a exploded view of the parts. The lock is back by the reverse gate on the nozzle area not up by the shift handle.
