I’ve owned my boat for about 23 years, the first time I pulled my drive off and went to install it I had a heck of a time, as time went on I learned about engine alignment, once I aligned the engine the process was so much easier, thanks Michael 👍😁

[@DIYwithMichaelBorders]

Good morning Dave ☕️
Thanks for watching, and alignment is important as you mentioned. The very next video will show the install process of the outdrive. 😁
Over thanksgiving dinner, my older brother and I were looking at late 80’s/early 90’s Mastercraft for sale online.
He got me pretty interested in a classic Mastercraft Prostar 190. Who knows…you might see videos on that in coming years…😁👍
As we upload these boat videos, we are busy in the background at hq filming more jet ski videos.
☕️👍

[@davestewart9146]

@@DIYwithMichaelBorders looking forward to more videos

[@LynnFlom]

I think you found your calling... amazing videos.

[@steve18649]

Thanks for the information. For all that you provide is appreciated. Question on the multi tool. Why is it out of spec?

[@Joe-mc4pe]

I was also wondering about the alignment tool,how did you determine that
Thanks

[@DIYwithMichaelBorders]

Thanks for watching, tool should be able to slide through the center race of gimbal bearing a bit more easier than we experienced.
Grease is always your best friend as you see when performing the alignment procedure prior to installing outdrive.
😎👍

[@NickMcKay-xh7er]

Where did you find the schematics specifically for your serial number?

[@DIYwithMichaelBorders]

Thanks for watching, you can get an online service manual. However you can also visit:
www.marineengine.com
You can scroll down and select Mercruiser, then enter your serial number. This will bring up all your diagrams.
Hope this helps. 😎👍🧰
