Hi to everbody new member recently bought an 87 sunbird corsair with
the 3.0 mercruser power plant. when in the water it is impossible to get
the boat in neutral with the engine running. when pulling back on the
shifter it is springy and goes directly to reverse or vice versa. it
shifts ok on land with no load on prop .HELP !! thanks dusty

Most likely the shift interrupter switch is misadjusted or defective.

And/or the shift cables need adjusted.
