From this pic, could someone please describe how to take some slack out of the steering cable? Many thanks! https://photos.app.goo.gl/7jq3i3Ua7fgu33Lv8 |

I'd love to know how to do this as well. Let me guess, you have slop in the steering wheel? If so, you're not alone. |

I see it's a worm drive so no cable adjustment. And the hydraulic actuator has 2 inches of play built into the system as it changes direction. I guess I have to see if there is play in the leg to confirm a worn actuator. What a system! So many places for built in slop.

iirc there's some amount of play built into the system. Every sterndrive boat I've ever driven, including a new H190, has done it. I wouldn't worry about it unless it's excessive - like turning the wheel from 12-6 and it doesn't move the drive. |
