throttle won't stay put

[riverat]

I have a 1998 Yamaha 130 with Yamaha controls.<br />My problem is, the throttle won't stay where you<br />put it. If you let go of the throttle, it starts <br />easeing off the gas, and this means that you have<br />to hold it all the time you are under way.<br />Is there any way to adjust the throttle so it will stay put.<br />thanks<br />riverat

No problem RIVERRAT.If you have a side mount 703 control box there is a screw slot on the back side of your control box. Turn the screw to the right to add tension. If it is a 704 flush mount <br />box you must remove the plastic cover,there<br />is the same slottre screw on the backside of the box to tighten to the right
