Hi, I had a cable once that was also painfully stiff to a point that I broke the handle trying to move it. It turned out that cable housing was split at a point near the middle of the cable which allowed the inner cable to corrode at that location. A new cable and self-manufactured handle fixed it. You may want to check along the cable bends for split cable housings and replace.
On another boat, I once saw a stiff cable caused by an over tight clamp near the injector. It was fixed just by loosening the clamp a bit. - Paul E. 1979 C&C 29 Mk1 S/V Johanna Rose Carrabelle, FL On Dec 3, 2013, at 9:07 AM, cnc-list-requ...@cnc-list.com wrote: > Date: Mon, 2 Dec 2013 22:03:28 -0800 > From: kevindrisc...@gmail.com > To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com > Subject: Stus-List Stiff throttle and belt recommendations for Yamar 2GM20 > on cnc 30 mkII > > > (4) - The throttle is painfully stiff to the point I almost need two hands to > move it.
