Installation Guide

1. Safety First: Before starting, ensure the engine is off, the battery is disconnected, and the boat is secured.
2. Access the Trim System: Locate the hydraulic trim and tilt unit on your engine or sterndrive.
3. Relieve Pressure: Carefully relieve any hydraulic pressure in the system according to your manufacturer's service manual.
4. Remove the Old Hose: Place a drain pan under the connections. Using appropriate wrenches, carefully disconnect the old hose from the manifold and the trim cylinder. Be prepared for some hydraulic fluid to leak out.
5. Install the New Hose: Connect the new hose to the manifold and cylinder, ensuring fittings are clean and correctly threaded. Tighten to the manufacturer's recommended torque specifications.
6. Refill and Bleed: Top off the hydraulic fluid reservoir with the recommended fluid type. Bleed the system of air by cycling the trim/tilt unit up and down several times.
7. Inspect for Leaks: With the system pressurized, carefully inspect all connections for any signs of leaks.
8. Final Check: Reconnect the battery and test the power trim operation to ensure it functions smoothly.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

How do I confirm this hose fits my engine?
Start by checking the Compatible Engine Models tables on this page. Cross-reference your engine's model, HP, and year. It is critical to also check the OEM part number stamped on your original hose and compare it to the numbers in our Part Number Cross-Reference table.

What does the "starboard up" description mean?
This hose is specifically for the hydraulic circuit that raises the starboard side of the drive or outboard. Trim systems have dedicated hoses for "up" and "down" on both port and starboard sides; using the correct hose is essential for proper function.

My OMC Cobra is from 1993, will this fit?
Based on our data, compatibility for OMC Cobra models starts from 1994. While some parts may overlap, we cannot guarantee fitment for models outside the specified 1994–1998 range. Please verify your original part number before ordering.
