what do you think this may be?

i went to take the boat out to day for a test run.has its not been out .with me b4.
1,when i put in gear the engine will stop. if i try to rev it.so what i did to get out of that was to cut the cutout wire to stop that.(the one that stops you starting it in gear)

2,then.when i run the engine the drive unit will shift into gear but very hard
to get back out.and you can ear the clutch dog (i think grinding when you put it in to gear).

at the start of the day it was shifting ok just cutting out when you start to pull off.

3, it will shift ok with the engine off
the drive is alpha one gen 2.

any help will be cool!! thanks
 
On the shift plate mechanism up at the engine is a little micro-switch which is called the shift interrupter switch.
Most people call the shift interrupter switch the "kill switch" or "shift switch".
This kill switch is very important! It should never be altered, bent or disabled.
Basically, the kill switch helps the clutch go into the neutral position.

I NEED A NEW ONE!.and a part number and best place to look for it.
thanks.
 
Also, a new lower shift cable can stretch during the first part of its life, causing "overkill." That can be corrected with an adjustment.
 
"shift interrupt switch"

can any one help me get the part number?.or how can i get my hands one one?.

thanks,
