"Would it be feasible to take the two t&t cylinders off and try this before I decide to remove the whole thing completely from the motor? The other components to operate the t&t have not been installed yet. Will I be able to raise and lower the motor manually by taking just the cyllinders off?

thanks, fishndan"
 
"will be working on ob next 3

"will be working on ob next 3 days,. owners manual w/ ob says i need 8 holes in transom to mount ob w/ power t/t. I want to remove t/t completely, will the four transom mount holes on motor mount assy be sufficient and if not, how do I get the "pressure" off the t/t to manually tilt the o.b.? No hoses or anything are attached to t/t at this time.

thanks, fishndan"
