I busted two power T&T hoses today. My four new lines were supposed to be here yesterday but that is a different story. Anyways I replaced the two with some used ones and from all the leaks I totally locked up the system. So I disconnected the hoses on the the right cylinder and it freed everything up. Another hose is now leaking...


Long story short, can I go to the lake tomorrow with a using no power trim? The only thing that worries me is that I removed the reverse lockout when I added power T&T?

Please help I am supposed to leave early in the morning!!!

Oh well...we are going for it. Reverse is the only thing that worries me and I have taken trips without reverse anyways. So I made the decision to go. First splash of the season tomorrow! I will update my thread when I return...hopefully.

Where are the temp hoses leaking?? Try some Gas yellow colored sealing teflon tape on the threads if thats where .

My two new(used) hoses are fine....a third one failed. They were rotted and pretty brittle. It seems with hydraulics replacing one part exposes the next weakest. Ther is still a chance my new hoses will be here this morning.
