Can anyone help me I am new on this forum so I hope I am in the right thread if not please guide me to the correct one :). I am looking for a used Throtle control box side mount for my bass boat. The Motor it belongs with is a OB 1990 Johnson 140 V4.
I have a sloppy warm up lever and the throttle handle gears inside are sloppy as well, and they dont make the parts for it anymore and a new one will cost $400.00 .
It is a side mount box white with the tilt and trim switch. I dont need the cables just the box and gears inside.
I have pictures I can email to make sure what you have matches.
My Home email is:
D K o c s i s @ T a m p a B a y . r r . c o m

Any help and your responce is very much appreciated Thank You.

Yup, EBay is your friend!

Pull the cover off of your motor and you will see the plug that TD is talking about.
