[QUOTE="Kier, post: 346436, member: 13279"] I have a 1974 Johnson 4HP motor. This model only has fowrard. You have to turn it around to go in reverse. The issue is when I pull the throttle to fast it slips back to idle. I looked up on iboats ( link below) my model. It appears there is something called a friction cylinder that wraps around the throttle. I am assuming it grips the throttle lever so it does not move. I purchased a replacement on ebay and replaced it and the same thing is happening. Any advice on how to stop the throttle from slipping would be great. Thanks, Kyle https://www.boats.net/parts/search/BRP/JOHNSON/1974/4W74R/MOTOR%20COVER/parts.html [/QUOTE]
