Re: Stiff Steering
There should be a grease fitting at the hinge pin on the motor. Also on the top<br />of the helm (steering box) you might find a plastic tube,abt 8" long, and screwed into the top fitting of the helm. Remove this, fill it with penetrating lube, and put it back on. Be sure to put a plastic drop cloth or garbage bag under the helm on the floor,because it'll do a number on your carpet.<br />wipe the tube clean,and (once you're sure it's not dripping or leaking) work the steering back and forth until it frees-up.<br />Is the cable attached to a rod at the motor?<br />The reason I axe is, these tend to collect dirt and anything else. If you do, run it all the way out. Get a disposable rag,soak it in WD40, and wipe it clean. Do this after ever use, and it'll last forever,and never give you steering problems.<br /><br />------------------<br />Quater Horse; The kiddy ride in front of K-Mart.
