    79 Cobalt shift interrupter

    The shift interrupter had not been working but I was able to find and fix a wire that wasn't allowing it to ground the igntion. Now I adjusted the lower and upper shift cables to factory spec, but when going from forward to neutral it kills the engine unless u rock the shifter. Reverse to...

    Ok so we put the thermostat back in, I checked oil cooler for debri and found nothing. Port side you can keep your hand on it forever and starboard side literally about a sec. Doesn't help when you Rev it up and the engine temp hovers around mid 130's. We know it is getting water from unhooked...

    Ok, but taking the inlet hose from the port an re routing it to the starboard and vice versa wouldn have taken that out of play tho right?

    I'm not sure why you say the port side has least resistance?

    Also the port side you can keep your hand on it all day. That's also what's so confusing. You would think they would stay relatively the same temp. And we didn't let it run very long after we felt the noticeably different range in Temps.

    I didn't have any kind of gauge on the manifold but you wouldn't want to keep your hand on it longer than a few seconds. I would say it would burn skin.

    I installed the replumb kit last night and the thermostat is even out of it (I know ppl don't like that) so there should no restriction.

    Yes it is a 2012 Axis A22. 5.7 Indmar Monsoon. Yes that is the replumb kit I used and hooked up same way. I just can't figure out why on the port side runs so much cooler.

    Mercruiser shift interrupter

    What kind of resistance would a good shift interrupter have? I tested it last night and with the button pressed it showed .4 ohms. Is this good or bad?

    That's the crazy thing. Motor never got hot nor did the other manifold. I will start with the lines that feed this manifold and go from there.

    It did melt the paint. This hole just occurred this last weekend. The owner seen it bust shortly after he shut down the engine for smelling something getting hot. No water in oil.

    2012 Axis

    The boat was out 2 weekend ago and ran just fine with no problems. So I wouldn't think it would be a freeze problem. I wondered if it might have sucked something up or one of the connecting hoses collapsed.

    1979 cobalt shift question

    A friend has a 1979 cobalt mercruiser gen 1 and it will shift from neutral to in gear just fine but will not shift from in gear to neutral while it's running. Once shut off it will go into neutral fine. Not sure what would cause this?

    Why would a hole get blown in an exhaust manifold with no kind of warning? Motor never got hot but it was like the manifold wasn't getting enough water maybe?

    Thanks for the answer. Yes the one in front is going thru the hull and it has a t handle brass plug that goes there. None of its a big deal, I was just curious.
