753-06831 Lawn Mower Throttle Cable Compatible with MTD RM4625 316.240320, Y125, 21AK125G983, Troy-Bilt TB225 TB330 TB220 TB370 Repalcement for Craftsman Remington C210 125 Y125

What It Is

The 753-06831 is a replacement throttle cable that controls engine speed on walk-behind mowers. It’s designed for select MTD, Troy-Bilt, Craftsman, and Remington models with 125cc to 190cc engines, typically used for residential mowing.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, confirm your mower’s model number exactly (e.g., RM4625, TB225) – not just brand. This cable fits Troy-Bilt TB220, TB225, TB330, TB370, and MTD 316.240320, Y125, 21AK125G983. It also replaces Craftsman and Remington models like C210 and 125 Y125. Measure your old cable’s length from end to end (including fittings) – this one is roughly 38–40 inches. Check throttle bracket type (slotted or round) and cable end style (ball or hook) – the 753-06831 uses a standard ball-end for the carburetor and a slotted bracket. Do not rely on deck size alone; engine model and serial number are more reliable.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: Aftermarket part, not OEM. Some users report plastic parts feel less durable than original – inspect the cable housing and ends before installation.
• Installation: Moderate difficulty. You’ll need pliers, a screwdriver, and possibly a cable cutter to shorten if too long. Route carefully to avoid pinching or kinking.
• Common gotcha: The cable may be slightly longer or shorter than your original – you can adjust the carburetor end bracket, but extreme length mismatch won’t work. Always dry-fit before final install.
• Rating: 3.5/5 from only 3 reviews – limited feedback, so buy only if you’re comfortable with a non-OEM fit.

Should You Buy It

Buy this if your mower matches the exact model list and you want a budget-friendly fix (under $17). Skip it if you need a guaranteed OEM fit or if your cable has unusual end styles – original MTD parts cost more but offer better reliability.
