A worn cable guide can allow poor cable alignment or excess movement in the control linkage area, so it is best replaced when the cable-routing hardware is being serviced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstall 43433 or current replacement \u003cstrong\u003e8M0204660\u003c\/strong\u003e only after confirming the correct Mercury parts diagram for the control or steering-handle assembly being serviced. The replacement is a functional supersession and may look different from the original part, so match by part number and diagram callout rather than appearance alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAlternate\/Superseded Part Numbers\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCurrent sources show \u003cstrong\u003e8M0204660\u003c\/strong\u003e as the active replacement for \u003cstrong\u003e43433\u003c\/strong\u003e.
