Hello,
Da boat: 1986 Cruisers VeeSport, equipped with two Mercruiser 230s and updated with alpha 1 gen 2 outdrives.
Da problem: Turn the helm all the way to port and the port engine dies.
The death is quick - that says electrical to me.
The death happens only on the port side; when the outdrive is in gear or not in gear; with or without the starboard motor running; and, once I turn the helm back toward starboard, the port motor fires up like nothing happened.
So far, I have looked and not found anything obvious along the actuator assembly or in and around the helm rack and pinion (?).
There is a reward for information leading to prosecution and conviction of this scoundrel
Thank you.
