Gear shift cable connection 80 hp

[surgemc]

Does anybody have any pictures of the gear linkage and throttle connection on a 1978 80 hp mercury outboard. I want to check if mine is connected properly and also what is the correct part that keeps the gear shift cable on the shaft.

Nope that is not the correct part. http://www.marineengine.com/parts/m...hru-8067014-aus/bottom-cowl-and-shift-linkage numbers,31 & 30

Thanks for that. What about the throttle cable. Is it connected correctly?

Is that on the same page or should there have been a link to another page? Thanks
