CAT 3412 won't throttle up?

I have 3408's 1996 so i am pretty sure the brains are similar. I had it happen and turned the sync on by the time I got where I was going it was operating correctly.

Kobelt Pneumatic controls were on many a yacht in the '90's including Delta, Christensen & Broward Marine along with Jastram steering systems. I've been around a number of P.N.W. work boats with Kobelt pneumatics paired with their articulated rudder flap system w/Wagner power packs. Jastram bought Wagner Marine a few yrs back and Jastram & Kobelt are still going strong in B.C. with their hydraulic power packs and steering systems but maybe not so much with their electronic controls?

I ve never used Mathers but have heard many horror stories

Morse has a very nice electronic control system which is pretty reasonable. I used them for about 8 years. No delays. Once had an issue where one side shut down, because a mechanic had moved the cable between the service and the ZF gear increasing friction. Never heard of a Morse causing an accident, unlike Mathers

I understand ZF took over Mathers.
Teleflex has a nice system. I was warned against them but have a few Happy Cat customers with that stuff.
T D has a nice system also.

As much as I hated the old Mathers, ZF seemed to fix all problems and has a solid platform these days.

Again, My knowledge of the Kobelt systems are zip. Maybe it would be an easy upgrade with a similar product.

DON'T.

ZF is a solid system and easy to retrofit go this route.

I've had issues with Teleflex before, but was sorted out by Smith and Wick.

Yes, except now it doesn't stick in gear at the last throttle setting like it used to! Also not all models are from Mathers, the control heads that are larger and chrome seem to be the most durable. I really like Sturdy, but don't see any aftermarket kits to install them, always see them as OEM installs.

The overheat could be the problem. There is a coolant level sensor that could be limiting the rpm.

F M,, or U??
