Hello My motor is a 25 hp Mariner.I would like to know the year of the motor first. The serial number is 0G023000. I have Throttle and shift control cables installed already but no ignition box. I have a Mercury Quicksilver control box with a 8 pin harness. The harness went in nicely and turned the starter over with no problems, so I tried hooking up the cables and it seems the cables are going the wrong direction for the throttle. When I move the handle forward the throttle backs off. When I started the motor I didnt notice it was at full throttle when I turn the key on(scared me pretty good) I tried adjusting them but could not get anywhere with them. Maybe i am using the wrong box? Thanks
