15HP Mercury 2-stroke tiler handle throttle is not springing back. (Throttle return spring)

[gazmaz]

Hi All,

I have a 2012 mercury 15HP 2-stroke.
Model number:1015201FD

The throttle handle does not spring back to neutral (or near neutral) when released.
It stays where it is. Not ideal.
I have no idea how to fix it.

Is it a broken/missing spring
or
Loose control cables.

Any assistance appreciated.
Gary
