Hey guys,

I'm trying to remove the throttle lever from an old 74 Galaxy bow rider but I can't figure out how to separate the lever from the main assembly. I've tried removing just about every bolt I can see and it still wont come apart. Has anyone disassembled one of these before? The boat has a Mercruiser 140 on the back.

thanks

Got some time to work on it yesterday and I finally figured it out. The end knob just screws off. I had to use a pair of pliers to turn it though.

Hopefully this will help somebody else!
