tranny cable

Should there be any movement in the cable left over slack when it goes in and out of gear, Also seems to be firing in and out of gear, Does the wire go to the ignition or starter on the solenoid? Still has water in the tranny have drained like three times Do the coolers go bad?

Seems to be bangin into reverse.

Pete,
Are you coming to FL?
If so is there a certain flavor of beer I should bring?
I will try to answer in order,
I noticed the firing in gear yesterday? I had the float set to high and was trying to get back on the trailer. Anyway I gave it some juice to get it to fire of course I am standing at this point cruising dead in the water towards the trailer, bang it fires and almost throws me over the windsheild. Anyway fixed the float and all seems well. The slack is about 1/2 inch maybe a little less, as far as adjusting cables tried to put back where they were, pretty clueless on the process. Yes the NSS is what I was reffering to not sure if I hooked the one wire up wrong I thought it went to the starter on the solenoid. Engine does not seem to be gaining in rpms when shifted but I will have to double check that, No I have not pressure checked the cooler . How would one go about that. The big ends or the screw on fittings.
Thanks a ton Mike

cool Pete
Is there a simple way or a good reference to follow on adjusting cables?
On the NSS I tried the wires both ways on the switch same results either way. Boat ran great. The only wire left is the wire at the solenoid, Unless there is somthing else.???
Wish you could make it
Mike

nice, I have two white wires?

alright,
My one white wire is hooked up to the S position on solenoid. The other one is in the wiring harness, I will check the actual key switch tomorrow.

Found good link for tranny adjust, still searching for throttle, it seems pretty much the same just adjust so it balances out with out pressure one way or the other. Maybe a little pressure to the closed side on throttle?
Mike

Still starting in gear, new solenoid, new wiring harness, everything else seems to be working fine, can the nss be bad and the boat still start?
Mike

it is open all the time, Does it have like a spring loaded ball or some kind of contact in it? If so I think it is stuck. Cables dialed in, smooth.
Thanks Mike
If I take it apart is anything going to come shooting out.

maybe not open but the switch is flowing voltage. Harness is store bought, colors matched and double checked , the switch is stuck, the shift lever was stuck when I first started messing with it, it freed up and seems to pull good, when I get that switch ouut I will know more.
Thanks

valve on valve off?

Well back at it, pulled the nss and cleaned ball is not stuck reinstalled same problem boat still turning over, going to rechase wiring at solenoid may have wire misplaced. or wrong. Any tips for the circulation pump? removed in the process of cleaning. pump came with a real cheesey gasket so going to purchase a new one before installing.
Mike

dont know Let me try and find it, I know the other tester is telling me the switch is staying in the same position all the time closed, power running through it.
Mike

i think you better just change it at this point

fixed new switch

Easy Pete,
I still have to guess where to set the dial and most of the time not sure what the reading means anyway. But hey With all of your guys help I have managed to tear the thing all the way apart, and more importantly put it back together, so it has taken a year and a half, Then swapped motors again.
And still needs work it has been worth it
Mike
