1990 Evinrude tiller handle question

Destroyer, I like the way you think

doing what you said has been my plan B all along, since i cant even find a diagram on how to take this thing apart plan B seems like the way to go

If it's like my 4.5hp, look near the bottom of the actual twist handle and there will be 2 tabs you push in. This allows the handle to slide forward. Be carefull as there is rollers and a pin inside that connect thethrottle cable to the ramp mechanisms. Once the handle is apart, it just basically falls apart in your hands, so be ready to catch pieces.

Thanks Ferm, you were right. It comes apart just like you said and it literally does fall apart and end up all over the floor.


Motor is working good now, thanks again
