We have a pontoon boat with a new Honda 4-stroke on it. The motor
idles
fine and revs in neutral but as soon as we put it in forward or
reverse gear
it cuts out. Is there some special switch that is out of
adjustment???

Just a silly thought, but If the original post had included useful
info ("pontoon boat" isn't useful, neither is "new Honda 4 stroke")
like something about the year, size type and HP of the engine, FI or
carb equipped, this might have been resolved already.

For sure... problem is its 30 miles away from here and its my best buddy's
boat. He is not sure of any of those details or I surely would have
included them. Will have all the info next week.
