I picked up a boat on an As Is sale. The motor, a 2000 optimax 225xl saltwater starts and idles at about 1000-1100, but I can't get it to accelerate. No engine light on, bUT does work. I think my beeper alarm is broke though. I don't get an initial beep like I think it's supposed to.

Anyway my initial suspect is the single Throttle Position Indicator it has.
Anyone else have other thoughts?

It takes an 832952 1 are there any other compatible indicators? The going rate seems to be $160. Any cheaper?
