now that winter is coming would like to look at few things boat related
new control/shift cables these are from the box to the bell crank on the merc 120 inboard how do I figure out how long and which ones are really needed it seemed to have lots of slop in the cables
I think the cable going out to the drive is newer and been replaced by PO but not sure
is there stuff I should look at in the control/shift box for wear/slop
I have a spar bottom and top end for the out drive I know it takes special tools to set bearings for the upper drive (anyone have list of numbers handy or I will look at manual )
the bottom gear case I would guess is the same needs special tools but I would like to go thru both and freshen/rebuild both
any other good ideas
and thanks in advance
