Just a question how do you lift the engine up three inches to change the tilt tube bushings?
The boat motor has about 1/2 inch play up and down.
I have the bushings but did not order the tilt tube with that much play should I get a tilt tube also, I saw in a older thred that I should put in a stainless tube but don't know why.
