[QUOTE="TinCan2, post: 155640, member: 3661"] Just purchased a 2004 Mercury 40hp 4 stroke. Trying to workout a few minor issues. When I turn the tiller handle to WOT and look at the butterfly valves in the carbs, they look to be about 3/8" to 1/2" from parallel. I can't figure out how to adjust the throttle cable to get the butterflies to parallel. I have no more adjustment to take out slack from the cable on the carb linkage. Only other place I can think to take slack out would be at the tiller handle connection???? Anyone have any ideas? [/QUOTE]
