Quicksilver 8M0082484 Platinum Plus Throttle and Shift Cable 11 Ft Generation I

The Quicksilver 8M0082484 is an OEM Platinum Plus replacement throttle and shift cable measuring 11 feet in length, designed specifically for Generation I Mercury Marine control connections. Built to exacting Mercury Marine standards, this cable delivers smooth, precise throttle and shift control in demanding marine environments.

Selecting the correct cable is straightforward: read the length and part number printed on your existing cable, or measure the path from the control to the engine throttle/shift attachment point along the unobstructed cable route. For outboard installations, add 18 inches to your measurement. When replacing, measure the old cable tip to tip and subtract seven inches.

Key Features:

• Platinum Plus construction — layered technology structure engineered for smooth operation and long service life
• All-weather performance — rated for maximum performance in all weather conditions, including temperatures below 0°F
• 100% wire-wrapped outer conduit — larger-diameter construction provides added strength and durability
• Polypropylene outer jacket — UV and abrasion resistant for extended service life in harsh marine conditions
• Lubricated core liner — surrounds the stainless steel core to resist corrosion while maintaining flexibility
• Stainless steel core — specially designed to handle compression loads while remaining flexible for multi-bend installations
• Nickel-plated fittings — corrosion resistant for reliable performance in saltwater and freshwater environments
• High-efficiency inner core — provides smoother, more responsive shifting and throttle response
• Generation I connections — direct-fit replacement for Gen I Mercury Marine controls

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 — replacement is the only option. Do not lubricate the core, and avoid tight or sharp bends during installation.
