there should be virtually no play. I bet you have air in the system due to a leak.

PM me your E-mail and I can send you the PDF manual on bleeding the system. It must be done just right to get all the air out of it.

Make shure you do`nt have any end play on the hydraulic ram rod mounts. Their is a adjusment nut w/ allen head bolt lock on the starboard side.

Yes on the coller and no on the movment. The center connection bolt may need attention. Have seen them wear and alow movement but slack is most likly in the collar adjustment.

Zuma, Check all of the mechanical attachments for play as recommended. If everything is tight do the following: With all air bled from the system and the motor pointed straight, while looking at the steering wheel, push on the motor to one side. If the motor moves and the wheel trys to turn, you most likely have a helm valve problem. Watch the wheel closely. It will only turn slightly if at all. If the motor moves and the wheel does not move, there is an issue inside the cylinder. Either way I can get you back on the water. Give me a call. Butch 210-317-7035 www.boatsteeringrebuilders.com
