I am about to commence the installation of this system to my Mercury Verado 250 outboard engine and have 2 questions:
Firstly, in the installation guide for the pump, the diagrams only show 3 hoses connected to the helm pump whereas my helm pump has 4 hoses - 2 going to the steering ram and 2 going to the main pump. Any ideas please?
Secondly, on unpacking the pump I have noted that there is already some oil inside. Is this solely for packing/transit purposes and can it be emptied out as I do not know what the type of oil is. My main pump uses 0-30W oil.
Any help would be much appreciated.
