Engine dies when transmission engaged.
Posted: Tue May 16, 2017 8:00 pm
Good evening to all,
My son took his 1977 37', twin 360 sedan out this past weekend and after a successful short cruise, drifted for a while. Both engines restarted but the port died immediately when put into gear, both forward and reverse, regardless of the rpm. Restarted numerous times with no problem but died immediately upon gear engagement. I told him that I suspected the neutral switch but having no experience with one, have no idea what to check. Any suggestions or advice would be appreciated.
Regards to all,
Rockxx
