one of the only pieces that is still original on my 1990 thundercraft is the control box and throttle cables. I figure its easiest while its cold to test this stuff before next season. whats the best way to test to see if its the control box versus the cables themselves? I'm thinking easiest...

my controls on my 1990 90hp engine are aweful stiff going into forward/reverse. takes a good bit of effort. I'm going to look into seeing if its the control itself or the cables but as I get into I'd like to know while I'm digging around what numbers on the controls I need to look for to...
