Hi all,

I just changed the anodes on my MC1 and during replacement the 2 bolts securing the anode to the trim splitter on the base of the out drive by the transom sheered.

I removed the hydraulic pipes to remove the diverter valve so I could drill and retap to M8. This was successful but do I now need to bleed the system and if so is there any advise about the operation that would come in useful ?

Many thanks

Ron.

Nope,... It'll purge itself with use...

Sweet thanks Bondo.

I just printed the power trim section of the manual no 2 and I got a handle on things now.

It says to disconnect the cyclenders and cycles with cylenders horizintal and vertical a few times.

Cheers.

Ron.
