    New Gimbal bearing doesn't swivel!!

    Just fitted a new gimbal bearing into my Alpha I Gen II. Last time I did this, I put the alignment bar into the gimbal and give it a few gyrating rotations to centre it. This newest one does not gyrate. Should it?

    Mercriser Alpha I GenII 1992

    I'm just rebuilding my new Transom housing (OF644536)and transferring all the parts over. On the parts listing for a seal which seems to fit onto the top steering spindle (Part No 26-41607 1) it says no longer available. Is there a modification for this or is the seal no longer needed? Any help...

    removing outer Transom plate from 3.0 Mercruiser

    I have had a leak in my boat for some time now and finally found it. The outer transom plate has corroded through due to the Annodes not being replaced(wasn't me but previous owners). I have everything out of the boat including the inner Transom plate, but obviously it has been there a long time...

    Hole in my outer Transom plate/gimbal bearing housing!

    I have finally tracked my water leak to a corrosion hole in my outer Transom plate! Annodes were almost non existent when I bought his boat. This leak has been driving me mad but at least it's not a rotten Transom. The boat is a Fletcher 1991 with a 2004 3.0 Mercruiser and a Alpha I Gen II...

    Steering wander after fitting bigger prop

    I just fitted a bigger prop to my 18ft sports/cruiser as it used to be kept on a river which had a speed limit of 8 Kt. I now find that while operating it at low speed(entering or leaving the Marina), it seems to suffer a lot of torque steer. I did notice that the anode above the prop does not...

    Leak from around transom plate

    I have a Mercruiser 3.0 year 2000 and have had a leak in the boat. I just found that the water comes from the bottom of the transom plate. Having already done all the bellows on the drive, is there anywhere other than the actual transom plate seal that water could come in i.e. where the trim...
