Kevin, I replaced my throttle cable last year after it broke....quite the job
on a 30-2. When replacing you will see how many curves it has hence the
stiffness. To do the replacement I had to:
- remove the compass
- remove the wheel brake
- slack the steering cables
- remove the steering chain...all this to be able to lower and then pull up
both the throttle and transmission cables on the left side of the steering
shaft as described in the Edson instructions.
You will also need to remove the access panel under the pedestal in the aft
cabin.

Our new to us 30-2 started sounding a bit hollow and throwing some stream out

Only one of the fins appeared to be completely in tact
So my questions are:
(1) - What is the best toothed belt easily obtained as a replacement? (I read
the Yanmar belts were less than stellar)
(2) - How would you clean pullies before reassembly?
(3) - 30 mk-2 owners....How the h€ll does one tighten an alternator belt on the
2GM20 with the nut facing the back of the nut facing the stern and almost
completely inaccessible.
(4) - The throttle is painfully stiff to the point I almost need two hands to
move it. Is there an easy lubrication point to get it moving again till I can
replace the cable?
Thanks everybody.
