Tohatsu 50hp Throttle Cable
My throttle cable on my Tohatsu 50hp outboard has snapped, its a race ready Zapcat with the extended tiller damper.

Does anyone know if the throttle cable will be a standard Tohatsu 50hp cable, or will it be a modified one to fit tiller damper?

I would have thought it would be modified as the tiller is longer isn't it? Contact tohatsu direct, they are pretty helpful.

Update on this spoke to Tohatsu and they advised the extended tiller uses the normal throttle cable.

Replaced both of the throttle cables today, perfect fit.
