I thought the neutral switch only interrupted the starter solenoid and had nothing to do with the kill portion.

That's what I thought, but those bl / yw wires up by the power pack continue down the starboard side to some kind of switch that rests on top of one of the shift cable. can't find that switch ( if that's what it is ) on my diagram. You know what that is?

shift interrupt allows the engine to come out of gear when shifting. should be located where the shift cable terminates at the power head. Disconnect it at the switch and see how it does

I was having a similar problem a month or so ago with my 1985 150 Johnson. After a new ignition switch i still had the same problem. Turned out it was a combo of; a wire getting smashed between the two halves of the control box and a red wire that was not making contact in the connector for the remote control. I moved my ignition switch to the dash and jumped the red wire around the connector and haven't had any problem since.

I disconnected the shift switch, cranked it still had no spark on port side. Jasoncoopercola I have looked at all my wires and have fixed a bunch of pinched wires, I was in the control box quite a bit, all is good in there. I think it's on to testing the powerpack and the stator, but i need a peak voltage reading DVA which I do not have.
