Re: merc shift cable

There are 2 different cables. I think you have the later model that is a flat wound core. If the one on eBay is the flat wound (or whatever you have) it should work. The not flat wound cable requires a precise measurement once installed and cutting to the specified measurement, which I am sorry I can't remember at the moment and am not at the shop to look.

Hopefully Don or Bondo will chime in here.

Won't work. That's the old style inner cable for the 1 drive cables that screwed into the front of the bellhousing. The inner cores are also different diameters between the old and new style.
