Hi guys,
This is an easy one , I think. I have a 30' 88 Chris Craft w/twin 4.3 Alpha One gen 1's. When I remove the back seat I can get to the power steering at the transom. My question is how to I correctly grease and oil this unit? BTW this power steering is flawless and has been. No issues, no play, turn very smooth and easy. This is just for maintenance. Somebody told me to retract the cable before I grease the fittings. Is this true , and is it as simple as turning the wheel? Someone else said put motor oil on pivot pins. Somebody out there must know the proper way to grease and oil this unit. Thank you in advance for any feedback. This site makes owning a boat less confusing!
