My 98 scarab 26 with 502 mpi has developed a stalling issue. I replaced the kill switch (problem happened with old switch also). It doesn't matter if im wot or at 6 knots hot or first start it just randomly cuts off and all gauges drop back to zero. I put it in neutral turn the key off and back on and it starts right up.it seems like what would happen if I pulled the kill switch while running (never done that so not sure)? Is there another circuit? Or area I should check?
this is an annoying problem to have 1 day runs all day next day stalls 3 times on a short trip...

Possible bad neutral safety switch or its connections or it has shorted connections - putting back in N can change all of that until you get running again and hitting waves or by just advancing the throttle.
I would scan the engine to
also possible weak connection / pin connection in your cannon plug in ( main boat wiring harness) check all of that out as well
