    Hotfoot throttle help

    I have a hotfoot pro on a 2011 150 Pro XS.
    I notice a drop in RPM so I figure I would check the linkage first, here is what I found. An ideas how to fix it or do I need a new cable?

    In the second picture- it looks like your throttle cable came off the throttle bolt. I would reinstall with a nylock nut to keep it on.

    Wrong boards Sir. Your motor is not a 3.0 liter.
