Take your cables to the local NAPA or other auto parts store. They will match the length and the cable ends to the proper Teledyne – Morse cables for your installation. They are pretty inexpensive, I think I paid about $40-45 for the replacement cables for my 38 (one of which was the old fat cable with an extended length that was used on the Paragon transmission for the OEM A4 engine that had been replaced back in 2000).
The little J shaped clamp that compressed the cable sheath is still the best way to overcome the throttle return spring.

Not surprising as they are OEM and 33 years old. Any thoughts on suitable replacement and where to purchase?? On a related note, our Yanmar 3GM throttle has a built in internal spring that applies increasing resistance as the throttle is opened more. The OEM fix was to put an adjustable crimp in the cable but that seems less than ideal. Any thoughts as to how to offset the internal spring??
