Defective shock piston, specifically pressure release for the down side.
I suspect that this is the reason GLM only is offering the starboard side from sale and not the port side.
Thanks mercstuff.com for wasting a lot of time during my short season. Don't buy GLM trim cylinder from them
Jeez I bled these 3 times (not saying I couldn't of done it poorly 3 times but) and I still cannot get the dang thing to trim all the way the way in. When standing on it the farthest in I can get it is everything but about an inch.
Bought from mercstuff.com as it's one of the few places you can...

But then when you have 2 I/o and you have a master trim button to control them both. How is this accomplished while keeping the engine circuits separate?
I need to figure out how to DIY wire the master trim button with diodes.
I have twin 3.0l mercs with I/o , bought a seastar/domestic standard remote control, specifically the chx8242p, came with 4 buttons not counting the master trim on the handle. I'm assuming the 2 extra per side are to...
Super old post but I wasn't sure if I saw a definite resolution here... Was it simply that with the TKS if the key is on but not running it is NORMAL the alarm on one constant beep until engine is running?
Just wanted clarification
Does something exist to change angle of exhaust elbow and tube on a current/newer 3.0l mercruiser sterndrive?
Long story short are there any options for changing the route of the exhaust elbow and therefore tube connecting to the transom assembly so as to fit better in the engine compartment...
Can anyone tell me the absolute minimum transom thickness tolerated in a 2000 and new alpha one gen 2 sterndrive setup?
I know the spec is 2 to 2.25 inches but is there any small liberty I can take. 1/8th or just under. Anyone have my experience with this?
Transom is in very good health and is...
Gotcha thanks. Yeah that wouldn't be ideal. Is it acceptable in any scenario to add layers to outside of the hull with gel removed first.? As yes the inside of transom left in the "rough" seems like I'd have to go pretty deep to start in there
Yeah, one of the reasons that I stopped considering a couple 6s beyond all the other associated glasswork on a new doghouse. Those things sure are cheaper sometimes.
Spec these days in boat manufacturing at it's smallest is normally like 28 on center right? At least on inlines I suppose....
