Hey,
I just bought a 2000 19' maxum cuddy with a 5l mercruiser I/O
Motor runs great, but sometimes when I put it in drive it stalls out
I also noticed that the guy I bought it off unplugged the horn that indices low oil pressure when you turn the ignition
on. I checked the oil pressure and did a compression test on it and the motor checks out. Motor has 190ish hours on it and compression reads pretty even through all the cylinders

Re: Sometimes stalls out when put in drive?

If your RPM's at idle are a bit low, then adjusting the idle setting may do the trick.
