Guys, does anyone know how to adjust the tension on your throttles? I’ve taken it apart I just don’t see how to adjust attention. The throttles are out of a 2003 top gun.


Saturday when we were out floating we were taking waves pretty hard in the Stern after about an hour I noticed that the auto bilge pump kicked on I open the engine hatch and there was water in there. This was the fourth time out no water in the bilege...We pulled anchors headed back to the dock while sitting at the dock no more water was getting into the boat anybody have any ideas? At first I thought it was maybe a torn Belllow, but I don’t understand why at the dock no more water was getting in..

Small/Slight tear in shift cable boot or driveshaft bellow can mostly seal when drive is all the way down, or close to it.

Yes, I had that on a boat one time. OP Fix immediately before you ruin the gimbal bearing.

Swivel seals call also leak but that sounds like a LOT of water. Likely more than swivel seal leaks would allow
