    1998 Volvo/OMC - When shifting to forward, the motor stalls. It runs fine on muffs.

    Just remember that a prop and exhaust in FOWARD are pushing SOLID water. In REVERSE the prop is spinning in a MASSIVE CLOUD of exhaust fumes. NO hp is needed when boat is floating. Ignition appears to be good. I like the EXHAUST FLAPPERS stuck somewhere.
