I didnt try and adjust the NSS but the switch itself was working propery - short when in nuetral, open when in F or R.
Yup, I have mixed feelings on disabling the NSS because of the safety aspect - but the outboard sure seems to run nice with out it..

So, if the engine wants to die when placed in gear, it could be the ignition shutting down due to one or more of the following;
Low oil pressure.
Faulty oil pressure switch.
Faulty oil pressure indicator lamp.
Internal open in the CDI module's oil pressure indicator circuit.
Faulty connections or wiring between the CDI connector and oil pressure switch.
-------------------
I have no idea what the problem is but my oil pressure lamp and sensor appear to be working fine. The lamp lights up when the engine is running and this afternoon I watched the lamp when I closed off the air to the carb. As the engine is dying, the oil pressure light pulses slower and slower as the engine revolutions slow.
But when I had the NSS in place, I could move the shift lever and trip the NSS without shifting. The oil pressure light just went off - like a switch was thrown. How the oil pressure light went off was way different between the two cases.
Seems my problem is solved (at least for the moment), thanks again..
