Quicksilver

<h3>Quicksilver: The Marine Enthusiast&apos;s Trusted OEM Brand</h3><p>For boaters who refuse to compromise on quality, <strong>Quicksilver</strong> has been the benchmark for marine parts, accessories, and engine care products since 1950. Based in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, Quicksilver operates as the parts and accessories brand of Mercury Marine — and that heritage is central to everything it makes. As the only marine aftermarket brand manufactured and recommended by an original-equipment manufacturer, Quicksilver brings factory-level engineering directly to boat owners, professional technicians, and weekend warriors alike.</p><p>What sets Quicksilver apart from generic aftermarket suppliers is its direct lineage to the engineers who designed the engines in the first place. Every component is engineered, tested, and manufactured with the same exacting standards as the original equipment it replaces. The result is a product line that fits right the first time and delivers the reliability boaters depend on — whether they&apos;re navigating calm inland lakes or pushing through demanding saltwater conditions.</p><p>Quicksilver&apos;s catalog spans more than 40,000 parts across 12 product lines, covering outboard and sterndrive engines from Mercury, Mariner, Yamaha, Honda, Evinrude, Johnson, Suzuki, and more. Among the most critical components in that lineup are Quicksilver Fuel Pumps, which are built to deliver factory fit and consistent fuel delivery across a wide range of outboard applications. Reliable fuel delivery is the foundation of engine performance, and Quicksilver&apos;s fuel system components are engineered to handle the demanding conditions of marine use — including compatibility with current fuel formulations.</p><p>Beyond fuel systems, Quicksilver is a go-to source for Propeller Parts &amp; Accessories that help boaters maintain and optimize their propulsion systems. From hub kits that protect both prop and gearcase to installation hardware and prop tools, these components are designed to the same tolerances as the drives they support. Proper propeller maintenance is one of the most impactful things a boat owner can do for performance, efficiency, and engine longevity — and Quicksilver makes that job straightforward.</p><p>The brand&apos;s commitment extends across lubricants, impellers, thermostats, anodes, fuel filters, oil filters, maintenance kits, and complete service packages — all engineered for the marine environment and tested to meet or exceed the standards of major engine manufacturers. Whether you&apos;re performing routine seasonal maintenance or tackling a more involved repair, Quicksilver provides the parts that restore your engine to peak operating condition.</p><ul style="list-style:disc"><li>OEM-backed engineering from Mercury Marine</li><li>Compatible with Mercury, Yamaha, Honda, Evinrude, Johnson, Suzuki, and Mariner engines</li><li>Over 40,000 parts spanning 12 product lines</li><li>Formulated and tested for freshwater and saltwater environments</li><li>Trusted by DIY boaters and professional marine technicians since 1950</li></ul><p>When reliability on the water is non-negotiable, Quicksilver delivers the peace of mind that only a true OEM-backed brand can provide.</p>

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.
