    2003 Utopia 205 240hp EFI Throttle question

    The throttle seemed to be pretty stiff so I went searching for an answer. Disconnected the bucket from the F/R cable and the bucket moved up/down with ease. Checked the throttle linkage and that moved freely once disconnected. Tried to pull the control unit through the speaker hole as stated...
