Mercruiser Remote Control

2016/7/16 9:27:49


Question
I have a Quicksilver 3000 panel mount remote control on my 1993 Searay 180BR. I recently replaced the throttle cable. However, the movement of the throttle handle is now much stiffer than before. Is there a way to adjust the tension at the handle ? Or do you have any other suggestions ? (Shifting is OK.)

Thank you.  

Answer
there is no adjustment at the control handle.you need to take it to a mercruiser dealer to set the preload at the engine where the cable connects to the drive cable.there is to much preload if the cable is stiff to shift.

                 hope this helps.  BRUCE
