I am replacing one of the hydraulic trim lines on my Alpha One Gen II outdrive. Is it just as simple as removing the old and replacing with the new and replacing lost fluid?

Ayuh,... That's about It...
The Trick is getting the old 1 Off,... Use a 6-point Tubing wrench...

The line can also be cut off flush at the fitting and use a six point socket.

It may take a while to get the air out. Run the drive up \ down a bunch of times and all will be well.
