Mercruiser 120 shift interrupter
I have a 1982 Stingray with a Mercruiser 120 and MCM 120 Stern Drive. I
just replaced the points type ignition with a Delco EST and have some questions about the shift interrupter (which I cannot seen to find). The timing instructions tell you to short the shift interrupter as part of the process. I traced the wiring as shown in the service manual and found two wires (gray and black) with ring terminals that are taped off but no terminal block or switch. If I connect these two terminals, it kills the engine.. Does this engine/sterndrive combo have a shift interrupter? Thanks, Patrick |

The shift interrupter should be an exposed switch made of black plastic that sits horizontally on top of the engine itself. When you move the throttle between forward and reverse, you can see the switch activate. -gatt 1987 SeaRay/ Merc 120. |
