CVX-18 throttle cable part number, length or part number
« on: June 26, 2023, 10:18:03 AM »
Hi folks,

I'm on the hunt for a throttle cable for my OMC equipped CVX-18, does anybody know of a source, the part number or the length?

Locating one has been a struggle.

Don't know year or engine of your CVX but here is what I have. 1986 CVX18 OMC Cobra with SMC. Pay no mind to the Mercruiser engine mounted to the OMC drive, it wasn't me, I bought it that way. I assume the cable routing is correct as the OMC pushes the throttle as opposed to merc that pulls throttle.( at least on this setup)
Both Throttle and shift cables that came with this boat measure 13 ft. both have the same number printed on them (09  HK H 13 FT). Hope this is some use to you.

John

Thanks John this is exactly what I am looking for, the boat is away from me right now and the length and part number is perfect.

Coincidentally my boat is a 1986 with a rebuilt Mercruiser 350 block in it but all the OMC bits.

Thanks again!
