Re: Joe Reeves and any other OMC gurus
Oh, what I would give for a manual, believe me!<br /><br />The shaft turns fine alone, when I hook the valve body, or TNT I guess it's called? up the motor tries to turn but won't.<br /><br />putting a shaft in the TNT from the old trim motor I can not make it turn, it will go 1/16" one way and the same amount the other way.<br /><br />I just unbolted the 4 bolts holding the body together and yeah, the ball bearings got loose on me. <br /><br />anyway I'm in it now so try to talk me through it. I have the 2 gears, one is slotted to receive the shaft, I have three ball bearings and two springs and set into the base is a ball bearing that I can't get to move, I'm guessing there is a spring under it?<br /><br />one ball bearing is very small and I see where that goes, the other two are the same size and I assume they go over the two holes either side of the gears, did I lose a spring? I only have one that will fit those bearings.<br /><br />I don't understand yet how this works, I see the large spring with b.b. that is the return from the cylinders, I see the manual overide path, I don't see which hole is the feed?<br /><br />is the ball bearing that is 'stuck ' in the base suppossed to be free?<br /><br />putting oil in the feed and trying to blow it back out to see the route is doing nothing, neither is trying to find it from the other direction.<br /><br />hey give it a shot, I can be taught, you can always walk away if it gets to be too much for you!<br /><br />thanks!
