Johnson throttle cable question

[mercedes84black]

I have a 1978 Johnson 70hp (model #70EL78C) from my old bass boat. I just put it on a 17' Stingray bowrider. The control cables from the bass boat numbers are 377374 14', the stingray is a 1996, it's cables are newer and the motor is racing with them. My question is I need the older 377374 cables but long enough for the 17' boat so what model numbers would I look for to order the correct cables

Ayuh,.... Ya need 3 things in a control cable for it to work right,...

The proper end to attach to the control,....
The proper end to attach to the motor,....
'n of course, the right length,....

I'm sure what ya need is in Here,....

and once you get the right cable of the right length installed, you still need to adjust it.

I ordered the cable from Ebay. Do they come with the end fittings or would they need to be ordered seperately

 

[Bondo]

Do they come with the end fittings or

Ayuh,.... Usually,... but it depends on the supplier,....

Any pictures ?----If the control on the 96 boat is an OMC control it may just need adjustment.----Without pictures it is difficult to advise on what you need to do.

Throttle cable question

I have a 1978 Johnson 70hp motor model # 70EL78C. I ordered a throttle cable from Ebay (#377374), it came without the fittings. My question is where came II get those fittings since the motor is so old (but runs really great)

The 14ft 377374 cables didnt have ends?
