"Hello All
First post. I'm restoring an 87 Searay 19'OB 3.0L Merc. w/Power steering. I got the engine running and serviced the out drive. Everything good so far. It's missing the trim motor (pump) so I'm searching for on as we speak. I am a master Auto Tech and currently an Instructor but I am still pretty hazy on boats. Here is my question: My steering wheel is locked. The outdrive is locked as well. 3 of us searched for a lock or something and we are stumpped. It has an OE ps system. We undid the cable on the unit and I can manually move drive to the left because the whole cable and casing are loose. Nothing to the otherside. When I say locked, I mean locked like a car steering wheel with the keys out. My Seloc online manual has not helped me on this one.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
