finally got her in the water today.
stopped by the station on the way to the ramp and put in $130. worth of regular. 30.5 gallons. backed her down the ramp and started her up. started right up. me and my pop then proceded to take a nice leisurely cruise. ran around at about 1,000 rpm for a bit. temp started to sneak up to about 180 degrees. kicked it up to about 2,700 rpm and the thermostat must have been stuck. temp shot down to about 130-140. opened her up for about 2 minutes and backed her back down to 1,000 rpm. putted about for another 1/2 hour or so and headed back to the dock. one problem. . . . . when shifting back down into neutral it would stall out. started right back up again though. i'm thinking maybe a throttle adjustment. other than that it ran like a dog without a leash. gonna be a few days before i get back to her. cant wait. oh yeah, havent been out on a weekend day for a few years. the whole schmuck fleet was out in force. guys flying by at 30 plus mph within 10-15 feet of us. a big old cigarette went by full tilt. must have burnt $130. worth of gas just going by us. lotta a$$holes out there.

MAke sure your idle speed is right, and your shift cable to the outdrive is moving freely. If your idle is a little low it may stall dis-enageing from the shift interrupt switch.

You may actually have it set to high which will cause it to not want to disengage. I wanna say that 650-675 is where it should be at in neutral, and about 600 in gear on a V8.
