## ⚙️ Key Features

-   Supersedes 3825618
-   0.023 kg
-   35 applications across D and V series engines

## 🔌 Function

Forms a low-friction pivot in a control linkage, holding the lever accurately located so throttle or shift movement translates without lost motion.

## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   Slack or lost motion at the control lever before anything moves
-   Stiff, notchy or sticking control travel
-   Bore worn oval, or the flange cracked and split
-   Squeaking or knocking from the linkage as the control is worked
-   Matching wear step on the pivot pin

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   Washer 3829681 is listed for the same 35 applications and sits in the same joint — renew the pair together
-   Check the pivot pin for a wear step before condemning the bushing on its own, as a stepped pin will chew a new bushing quickly
