Product Details

The Quicksilver 8M0082497 is a genuine OEM Platinum Plus throttle and shift cable designed for Generation I Mercury Marine control systems. Measuring 24 feet in length, this replacement cable is engineered for long-term reliability and smooth operation in demanding marine environments.

Built with a layered technology structure, this cable features a larger-diameter design with a 100% wire-wrapped outer conduit for added strength and durability. The high-efficiency inner core delivers noticeably smoother throttle and shift action, while a sealed lubrication system and nickel-plated fittings provide outstanding corrosion resistance in harsh saltwater and freshwater conditions. The polypropylene outer jacket is both UV-resistant and abrasion-resistant, protecting the cable along its entire routed path.

Key Features:

  • Genuine Quicksilver OEM replacement cable — Part No. 8M0082497
  • 24-foot length with Generation I end connections
  • Platinum Plus construction with 100% wire-wrapped outer conduit
  • High-efficiency inner core design for smooth, precise shifting and throttle response
  • Sealed lubrication system — do not lubricate the core
  • Nickel-plated fittings resist corrosion in harsh marine environments
  • UV- and abrasion-resistant polypropylene outer jacket
  • Stainless steel core with lubricated core liner for lasting flexibility
  • Rated for performance in all weather conditions, down to below 0°F

Determining the Correct Cable Length: The easiest method is to read the length and part number printed on your existing cable. Alternatively, measure the unobstructed cable route from the control to the engine's throttle/shift attachment point. For outboard installations, add 18 inches to your measured length.

When to Replace Your Cable: Replace the throttle and shift cable when you notice excessive free play or stiffness at the control, or when you observe chafed, broken, bent, or loose components. Throttle and shift cables cannot be repaired — only replaced. Installation requires only common hand tools and is straightforward by removing the old cable and routing the new one in reverse order. Avoid tight or sharp bends during installation.
