i got a 1985 90 hp force and my buddy was trying to see if the boat was in neutral before he started it and the the main cable's screw broke off i was just wondering if someone could tell me how to fix it, the terminology, and could possibly show some kind of diagram about how to go about this problem's resolution? sorry im a new boater and i did get this boat to fix up and learn but this problem has definitely put me at a holt.

If it is the threaded end of the cable, there is no fix. You must buy a new cable. Like jerry said: Pics please
