1997 Merc EFI 175, had throttle cables replaced and am now topping out 10mph slower, pretty sure my throttle cable needs to be tightened to open up fully - is this as simple as adjusting the trunnion nut where the cable attaches to the motor? I messed with that a little bit at first and it didn't turn easy so I didn't force it.

If the trunnion nut can't be tightened any more, what would I be looking at next?

Thanks for the help

Probably not hitting the throttle stop, this would limit TPS voltage from sending WOT to the ECM.
