We are talking OMC Cobra dog clutch.
I know that the ESA module causes the engine to stumble, when the shift interrupt switch is activated, but exactly how does it do that?
I'm asking, since a friend of mine has a 1988 Bayliner with 2 x 5.0 GM engines, where he has replaced the distributors with new Delco electronic ones. According to the installation instructions, the ESA module should be ditched and the interrupt switch should be connected so it kills the engine completely. It is however quite difficult to adjust the system, so the engine doesn't die now and then, when shifting. So he would like to have the ESA module installed again.
If we knew EXACTLY how it causes the engine to stumble, I believe we could make it work with the electronic distributor, somehow.
