{"product_id":"mercury-kabel-8m0085974","title":"Mercury Kabel 8M0085974","description":"Mercury – Platinum Plus Throttle and Shift Cable | 13 Ft | Mechanical Engine Control | 8M0085974 \n The Mercury Platinum Plus Throttle and Shift Cable is built for Mercury Gen II SAE mechanical control systems where smooth, consistent control matters at the helm. Featuring Platinum Plus construction, it provides a direct mechanical connection with reduced internal friction, delivering a lighter and more refined feel than standard mechanical cables. The 13-foot (4.0 meter) length supports slightly longer routing runs while keeping cable layout clean, controlled, and properly supported. \n Using the correct OEM cable length helps reduce strain on control components and supports reliable throttle response and clean shift engagement over time. Proper routing and correct adjustment also help limit internal wear, contributing to consistent performance and longer service life in everyday marine use. \n Key Features \n \n Platinum Plus Construction – Reduces internal friction for smoother throttle and shift operation \n 13-Foot Cable Length (4.0 m) – Supports clean routing in extended mechanical control runs \n Gen II SAE Control Interface – Designed specifically for Mercury Gen II SAE mechanical control systems \n Marine-Grade Build – Enhanced corrosion resistance to withstand vibration, moisture, and marine exposure \n \n Engine \u0026amp; Boat Compatibility \n \n Mercury outboards \n Gen II SAE mechanical control systems \n Non-electronic throttle and shift configurations \n Compatible with Mercury Gen II SAE mechanical control installations requiring a 13-foot Platinum Plus throttle and shift cable \n \n Important Notes \n \n Confirm Gen II SAE control compatibility and required cable length before installation \n Proper routing with smooth bends and correct adjustment are required to ensure full throttle and shift travel \n Mechanical Gen II SAE cables do not require electronic calibration \n \n FAQs \n  1) What control systems does this cable work with?  It is designed for Mercury Gen II SAE mechanical throttle and shift control systems. \n  2) What length is this cable?  This cable is 13 feet (4.0 meters) long, suitable for slightly extended routing runs. \n  3) What are the benefits of Platinum Plus cables compared to standard mechanical cables?  Platinum Plus cables reduce internal friction, resulting in lighter control effort, smoother movement, and reduced wear on control boxes and engine linkages. \n  4) Is this cable compatible with DTS systems?  No. This is a mechanical throttle and shift cable for non-DTS control systems. \n  5) What should be checked during installation?  Ensure smooth routing without sharp bends, secure the cable properly, and confirm full throttle and shift travel before operating the engine.\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVervangt artikelnummers:\u003c\/strong\u003e 896145A13 · 8M0052684.
