Throttle lever at engine won’t snap back into correct idel position.
engine is 012 Evinrude ETEC 175HP replacing previous 04 Johnson BRP 175HP basicely same rigging except for exiting straight out splashwell I took a 90*.
After starting engine then increasing throttle w/ either throttle handle or fast idel then binnical is moved to neutral/idel cable won’t pull lever back to idel position.
I have to use a bit of force to push lever back to idel position.video

Even though in past I’ve only greased the ends of both control cables I tried sucking in motor oil the length of cable
I disconnected both ends of cable an at engine end just pulled an pushed about 3 dozon times to suck the oil in sucked in about 6” of oil cable is 21’
didn’t improve a bit.images
90% of control cables are straight except for exiting out the splashwell theres a 90* bent small service loop an straight into engines rig tube.
I’ve even relocated the fuel line to outside the main rig tube so there’s not a bunch of rigging stuff jammed into the main hole so the cables aren’t being constricted in main tube that enters the engine.
Here’s the lever w/ binnical throttle lever at WOT so I assume the cable is adjusted closely. Image
Here’s the required gap at the lever an cam follower roller.being tempuarly held on until I get the proper O/ring holder.
I think I have the cable aligned in the trunion properly image.
I do know there is a snap back spring exploded image #7
but just don’t see a tiny spring applying this much force to snap the lever back.
The cable which is newish felt kindof smooth when I was pushing an pulling during the oiling (all this done after completeing rigging) however the binnical which is almost new seams to have quit a bit of friction
Could I have to much constriction during the rigging?
90% of rigging is attached to gunnal w/ loose rubberized C/clamps only section that could be a bit constrictive is at the splashwell? I doubt the cable is falling apart inside.please advice
