Make sure the electric choke is working properly. I recenlty had a similar problem, albeit it was running a little rough in neutral, it would die when going in gear. Take off the flame arester and make sure it is not being choked. I had to run with a set of pliers stuck in carb to keep the choke open to get home one time.

to get it home i had to keep it in neutral and have my buddy manually run the throttle as i put it into gear once i did that it ran fine other than the carb being loaded with fuel and had to clear out. that is why im leaning more toward a carb, float, power valve or something like that. what do you think. i will for sure check the shift interrupter. thanks for all the help!!!!

Look down the carb throat while someone pushes the throttle forward and see if its dumping gas. What model year and what engine is it? Nevermind about the motor question,I don't type very fast.

Typically where the shift cable from the helm and the cable to the drive pivot.

Since you have a VOLVO, you probably don't have a shift interrupter switch. That is pretty much a MERCRUISER thing as VOLVO used mostly cone clutches that didn't need em. What carb does it have on it? When was the last time it was gone through?

My I/O Volvo has a shift interrupter and it is connected right behind where the throttle cable connects to the carb, mine did somewhat of the same thing. It is about 1" sq box and what mine was doing as I put it in gear the box would open up and not make connection. I tie wrapped it together and it is still working fine.

After the interuuprter switch---things on carb to check--even though just gone thru--crap happens---float level(should have a brass float for sure-if not --put on in) Accelerator pump( not sticking and not returning to the up position., and main rods to make sure they have not come lose.
