Re: No throttle in reverse

Have someone slowly move the control arm forward from neutral while you watch the throttle cable at the engine. The throttle should begin to engage and move at about 30 degrees from the perpendicular. In the opposite direction or reverse, the throttle should begin to engage at about 30 degrees from the perpendicular.

If this is not happening, get back here and we will tell you how to adjust it.
