When you get into the indicator end be sure you to lay down some towells. They are spring loaded and have potential to be a major PIA to re-install. They disappear real quick !

"major PIA" is and understatement. anyone have any "tricks" for doing this. Went to put mine together last night and said heck with it. I was too uptight from a rough day at work to mess with it. All the indicators want to lean in different directions....kinda like employees :rolleyes:
If I remember correctly I installed the pins last pushed them into holder and rotated in place and they were held captive |

Looking at this link and Item 26 looks like an alignment wire??
Going to try this tonight. Thinking it will hold the housings square and hold the spring compressed. Anyone tried or am I in orbit? http://www.mercruiserparts.com/Show_...+%284+CABLE%29 |
Bingo
the wire works. that was too easy:cool: of course, you guys probably knew that!

My experience is put aside a couple hours to just run the cables and make connections at the transom. I tried taping the new cables onto the old and pull thru at dash end, got mixed results. |

Thanks to BillR, all cable lengths for a Top Gun.
Cable lengths: Trim Tab: P-26 S-21 OutDrive: P-25 S-24 Throttles: P-24 S-22 Shift: P-24 S-22 Might be good to jot these down for future reference. |

The cable length will be printed on the ends either in inches or feet.
And Morse 33c Supreme cables are always a great choice |
ttt, dont see lengths on the cables :( any one have ideas?
|
Tape measure my friend.

got them pulled through last night, wasnt as bad as I had thought, worst part was figuring which wire ties to cut as they were hooked to other. Once I got them moving it was cool. Now as soon as the base gets back from paint time to rehook them.
Oh and if anyone needs them, drive cables for a tiger are 24 and 25 ft.:D |
