chrysler controls

[dfranklin]

I am in need of tech help on control set up!
I have a 1971 45hp chrysler outboard (original controls).
when the neutral warm up switch is pulled out, the
throttle will not engage. everything works great with the
warm up pushed in. I know I have something out of sync
but can not figure it out. I have a service manuel but that is
not covered. Please help!

Re: chrysler controls

With the neutral interlock button pulled out, the control handle will advance to just past the shift point. The throttles will only crack open and the timing will advance only a couple of degrees. This is how it was designed to operate: It limits RPM in neutral to about 1500.
