Part of the main housing casting broke, sadly it is die cast pot metal not aluminum, makes a tougher repair.
A friend has some pot metal repair rod we are going to try but I do not have much faith as the housing does have repeating stresses as the throttle is worked forward and backwards. Was considering an epoxy but I know that is more or less a band aid not a proper fix.
So as a backup or for planning if the repair does not take I am looking for suggestions for a inexpensive controller (cheap as possible money is really tight right now, just had to rebuild the Merc lower unit and now this) or if someone may know where to find another casting for this thing!
Any help and suggestions are appreciated.
