Questions & Answers
Is this a genuine original part?
This is a premium quality aftermarket replacement part, manufactured to meet or exceed original equipment (OE) standards for fitment and performance.
How do I know if I have Gen 1 or Gen 2 cables?
Gen 1 cables (like this one) feature a visible barrel-shaped adjustable stopper at the engine end. Gen 2 cables use a different connection style at the control box. If your control box is a newer "4000 series" model, you likely need Gen 2.
Does this fit both throttle and shift?
Yes, for most Mercury/Mercruiser setups, the same cable model is used for both throttle and gear shift. It is highly recommended to replace both cables simultaneously to maintain balanced feel and reliability.
