Product Details

The Quicksilver 8M0082536 is an OEM Platinum Plus Generation II throttle and shift control cable measuring 13 feet in length. Designed as a direct replacement for Mercury, Mariner, and MerCruiser engines using Mercury 4000 series engine controls, this cable delivers smooth, precise throttle and shift response in all marine environments.

Knowing when to replace your cable is straightforward: look for excessive free play or stiffness at the control, or inspect for chafed, broken, bent, or loose components. To determine the correct cable length, read the length and part number printed on your existing cable, or measure the routing path from the control to the engine attachment point and add 18 inches for outboard installations.

Key Features:

  • Platinum Plus layered technology — multi-layer construction provides a smooth, durable operation throughout the cable's service life
  • 22 oil-tempered wires — increases compression strength and long-term durability
  • Stainless steel core with lubricated liner — resists the harsh marine environment while maintaining flexibility; do not apply additional lubricant to the core
  • UV and abrasion-resistant polypropylene outer jacket — protects against sun exposure and physical wear
  • All-weather performance — engineered for maximum performance in all conditions, including temperatures down to 0°F
  • Generation II (Gen II) connections — compatible with Mercury 4000 series engine controls on Mercury, Mariner, and MerCruiser engines (2003 and newer)
  • 13-foot length — sold individually; two cables required per control station

Installation is straightforward using common hand tools. Remove the old or damaged cable and route the new cable in reverse order, avoiding tight or sharp bends. Throttle and shift cables cannot be repaired and must be replaced when worn or damaged. This is a genuine Quicksilver OEM part built to Mercury Marine's exacting standards for reliability and performance on the water.
