Default ETEC throttle cable

Rusty-
One other thing to think through on the throttle cable hookup is my 2012 ETEC 150 HO, to accelerate the cable pushes on the engine throttle lever. I think all Mercs are like my 1985 Merc 150 where the cable pulls on the engine throttle lever. I discovered this when I adapted a PerfectPass speed control to fit on the ETEC. It was more difficult than on a Merc because PerfectPass is based on pull on the engine throttle like for the automobile-style throttle linkage on inboard watersport boats. Good luck with your new ETEC- quiet, quick starting, and fuel thrifty!
