ABSTRACT:
A throttle valve synchronization mechanism for a marine engine includes a throttle linkage which improves synchronization of throttle valve operation, while minimizing the opening degree of the throttle valves when moved to a closed position. The throttle linkage includes a linkage rod which carries a plurality of lugs. The lugs extends between the linkage rod and corresponding throttle levers of the throttle valves. The lugs are rotatably connected to the throttle levers and are rigidly fixed to the linkage rod. In one embodiment, the linkage rod lies in front of the throttle levers, and in another embodiment, the linkage rod lies to the side of the throttle levers.
