Re: Merc Tilt/Trim hoses

quote 20mercman:

These frequently have “kinks” in them, but as I have seen, this doesn’t mean that it causes loss of operation. The ones on my boat shed the outer shell years ago, and still work just fine. You can place an over cover on them to improve their looks. I have only replaced them if they are leaking.

Good point, and I haven’t tested the system yet to find out what leaks where.

Are there any detailed manuals for this system, with test pressures, hydraulic circuitry, and so on?
