steering fluid for ficht 150

[burnsie]

steering wheel turns motor don't move out of fluid ??? what type does it take and how much is needed to fill both lines ??? do you bleed like a brake system ???

[boats.net]

If it has Teleflex steering system then use the Teleflex steering fluid(can get at local Marine dealer) and if a newer system then cylinder on outboard has bleed valves to bleed air out like you would a brake system.

[burnsie]

do I hve to use the teleflex fluid or can I use something else ? does it use the same as the tilt and trim fluid ?

[burnsie]

It has bleeders its a 2000 model
