Hey guys, I have been working on a boat recently. Replaced the shift cable, all those bellows and such. Did the shift cable adjustment as per Achris's video which was great. Took the boat in the water, shifts great into both forward and reverse, but stalls most of the time going back to neutral. The shift cable with drive installed is very smooth.
Sometimes it stall the engine, but some other times it actually goes into neutral at the control box but does not come out of gear. The throttle arm needs to be shaken back and forth and eventually the shift interrupt switch does its job, stalls engine for a msec and then comes out of gear. Other times is stalls completely.
I checked the timing with a gun and it is right on along with the dwell.
Lower shift cable is new
Could it be an issue stated in achriss video comments of the grub-screw being to tight?
This is a mercruiser 3.0l Chris craft scorpion 168. I'd appreciate any help
