Do the tachs flutter back and forth when this happens? Almost like turning the key switch on and off very fast?

My first thought was what Gary said. Disconnect the synchronizer. You said it bounces back and forth from engine to engine. Sounds a little too controlled to me.
Too controlled for a water problem. Don't get me wrong though, check for water, but disconnecting the synchronizer is easy, and if it is the problem, the results will be immediate.
