Check with Nordic454.......I think he recently went to foot throttle so might have a Morse unit for sale.

I have the old hand throttle only operating the fwd and reverse.
It used to operate both but I re-routed the throttle cable in the assembly to a foot throttle.
GT elaborated on why it is the way it is.
Stick or go to a foot throttle.

Mine has one from the factory. I would have already put a foot pedal in it, but its wrong hand drive, and it would be uncomfortable.
