Power Trim Hose Replacement Advice (Pictures Attached)

[primo3236]

Morning all, I blew a power trim hose on my 69 Mercruiser 140hp I/0 with Alpha 1 Outdrive

Looking for some help finding the replacement part# and any tips for working inside the gimbal housing.

the compromised hose is on the starboard ram closest to the prop.

Inside the gimbal housing its on the top connection pointing starboard. I was able to get this backed out 3/4 of the way. I am having trouble backing this out all the way because i am unable to fit the wrench between the water intake pipe on the transom and the fitting.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

BD

I ended up replacing the old outdrive with one from SEI 2 years ago

Sterndrive Engineering: SE106

I thought that this replacement would be considered Alpha.

Here is the parts diagram and the list with the part numbers. Doubt any of the are still available, but who knows.

You didn't show a picture of the drive, you showed a picture of a 1969 MC-1 gimbal housing. Has nothing to do with what the drive is at all.
