Ok I am sort of useless here b
Ok I am sort of useless here but I have a boat that has an old 75hp johnson engine on it. I purchased it from a guy 3 years ago to use. It has served me well but today I pused the throttle all the way down and well it went past where it is suppsed to stop and broke.
I now have no throttle control. I can still shift into neutral and forward but I only have idle. I took the controller box off the side mount and the lever that I use to open up the carbs for starting basicall fell off. IT looks like there is a screw that holds this thing on and that screw broke. Needless to say I am guessign that somehow this caused the thing to fail.
I don' knwo what to do. I will try to take the box apart next weekend but I am guessing I may need a new remote control box. Do they sell these controls with the lever for opening up the carbs for starting in the nutral position????
Also I am nto sure hwo it works but when I turn the key I am supposed to push it in to help start the engine. I am not sure if it soes something to the throttle cables or what but in the past I have alwyas had to pul the lever up and push the key in while turning it to get started.
If I need to get a new control where shoudl I look and do they sell these anymore. (Oh and I have trim control on it as well.
