This boat is new to me and the cables were shot, difficult to shift/throttle in forward and reverse so I replaced the cables with honda cables and merc adapter. The throttle cable works great in forward and reverse while in throttle only mode, smooth and easy. When I fire up the engine to test, the forward gear and throttle work great, very smooth and easy. Shifting into reverse works fine, however when I try to throttle in reverse while in gear, it feels like something is stuck. Takes a lot of force to throttle in reverse while in gear and also takes a lot of force to get back to neutral. I'm thinking it must be something in the controller since it did shift into reverse and is in gear, feels like something is binding in the controller when throttling in reverse, but only when it's in gear. Has anyone faced a similar issue?
