I’m thinking I need to turn the coupler ever so slightly while maintaining the length of the linkage (no fire/aft adjustment). I just have really no idea which way to go despite having read every 915 thread.

All bushings, coupler and gearbox are new.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.

DO NOT ROTATE the coupler. Your problem is that the linkage is too short. Loosen coupler and pull back GENTLY a fraction; this will lengthen the shaft. Tighten. Test and redo until you get a clean change.
