Guys I got a Mariner 20 hp. Serial # OB187221 model 7020Y. I bought the conversion kit to change over to remote. I bought a new throttle shift control box. For the life of me I can't get it to work right. I can get the gear shift to work but the throttle seems to be working in the opposite direction of what it should be. For full throttle the cable pulls but to get full throttle on the linkage it needs to push. Is this right or am I doing something wrong? I'd sure appeciate any help. Thanks! Ken

you need a push throttle control box from mercury.. not a pull as 99% of the motors use.. you have a odd ball Motor.. ....

Thank you! Thank you! I thought I was a real moron here. The guy at marina guaranteed me this would work. I thank you very much. I was on the verge of cutting this boat up! Ken
