[QUOTE="Ebug, post: 427266, member: 11893"] Hello all. I have been in a search for a 30hp 2stroke motor under 120lbs for a month or so. It seems that I am running into many 1985-1990'ish motors that seem to have been converted from tiller to remote steer (which is what I need). I say this because it appears as though many of them have external shift mechanisms on the starboard side of the engine. Is this an indication that it was converted from a tiller, or is that how these older motors were rigged? Will a traditional throttle quadrant work with this external lever?(....the one that shifts into gear as you move the throttle forward) Or will it require a separate gear lever? I have attached a photo of a sample engine with the external controls. Thanks for the help. Rob [/QUOTE]
