I just did this on my 1992 OMC 4.3 19ft 4winns. Same bracket and everything. It was a pain to get everything to work properly with that switch. I adjusted my bottom cable front attachment bolt just below the center mark. Then with the motor running in the driveway I adjusted to top cable at the back where the plastic finger screw thing is. Whenever you turn that always make sure you are moving it in the direction that the ESA switch stays somewhat centered in that W bracket. As I adjusted it I put it in forward and then reverse to see if it engaged properly. Only turn that plastic top adjuster a couple turns and try gears again. It took me an hour of messing with it but as you check the gear engagement you learn which way helps forward and which way helps reverse, then you gotta find that happy in between. I also think I should replace the cables eventually. When I shift from reverse to neutral the Esa switch doesn't quite center and it stalls a little until I jiggle the throttle just right to center the switch. It's the best I could get it but gets into gear great now. 👍

Did you replace the shift cable? I just replaced mine and had the same issue. I made a minor adjustment at the throttle shifter side and that helped. There are 2 holes you can attach the shift cable to. Try the other hole.

It would probably go into reverse with the engine running... the clutch cant function properly down there if prop isn't rotating

I just replaced my lower cable and I am having the exact same problem? Any advice on how you got it fixed?

I have the same single switch bracket as you. I'm trying to figure out what makes the interrupter switch actuator move to one side or the other. The rocker arm and both cables move freely, what pushes the actuator over? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Tom
