First question; after putting my engine in gear there is a very large dead space before the throttle increases the rpm's, and then it is very sensitive with a very very little travel needed to go to WOT. Can I fix this?

Second question; in heavy chop the pounding of the boat moves the throttle. Can and how do you tighten the lever?

Third question; can you add a neutral lock lever to the controls? I have accidentally slipped past neutral more than once and I am sure this is very hard on the gears in the foot. Good thing I bought the foot failure insurance along with my regular boat insurance.

2013 Montauk 150 with Mercury 60hp.
