Whats causing the ESA to activate when shifting INTO gear? I've done a lot of work on this boat, new lower shift cable, rebuilt carb, narrowed the issue down to the esa firing when going into gear. Isn't it only supposed to activate coming out of gear? If I unhook the esa module it works great...
The boat is fairley new to me and have only had it out a couple of times. Prop was stolen recently and I have no idea what the spec's were for it.
Any suggestions for a stock replacement or a good place to start? Am hoping to grab a prop right after work so I can enjoy the weekend boating so...
It is the quadrajunk, ohhh how I despise them! But I don't think so, I played around a lot with it tonight and noticed that it doesn't always do it! sometimes it works like it supposed to, maybe 25% of the time. both forward and reverse. I can also get it right at the point where the idle...
I'm having the exact same issue! (1985 25' Rinker 5.7l OMC) It almost sounds like the engine is dying right before it tries to shift into gear like the kill is triggering just a tad to early. I have one run on a rebuilt engine last summer with new everything and the distributor has an...

Boat worked great last year. Now it dies when shifting.
Bought last year with a valve seat that let go and trashed pistons/cracked block. New block, pistons and everything else. Also changed lower end oil and both water pumps. Took out for one good run last fall. Worked PERFECT! Lots of fun...
Evening everyone!
Quick version:
I found a cup of water in the gimbel bellows when I removed the lower end to remove engine. What should I look for?
Previous engine 'got hot' anything specific I should pay close attention to before reinstallation of new engine?
Any alternatives to the engine...
Good afternoon everyone!
Just bought an 87 Rinker 25' with a GM 350/OMC outdrive.
Previous owner had engine rebuilt two years ago. One of the first trips out this year and a rod started knocking. I don't beleive there's even 25hrs on the rebuild.
Im an experienced engine rebuilder and yes...
