    exeptional job i have to say ...but for me i consider the new shifter bushing design has non sense because it dosent need seals and is obstructing the exhaust and in the shifter cable boot i recomend not to put the little clamp because it doesnt need that instead it can provoke a damage to the boot ...pro mech opinion ...exelent video thanks body

    Michael, I have a question about the bellows retainer clip, should it be on top or bottom of the bellows? I am talking about the stainless clip that you have to pinch on to the bellows.
    Thank you, Gary

    • @DIYwithMichaelBorders
      @DIYwithMichaelBorders  2 місяці тому +1

      Thanks for watching. Are you referring to the aluminum bellow bonding clips that clip onto bellow that the clamp wraps around and locks in place?
      If so, our service manual guides us to have the bonding clips positioned as shown.
      Some manuals will guide you to position them slightly offset from 12 & 6.
      If purchasing quicksilver OEM replacement bellow kit, the position of the clips when opening the packaging and removing bellows will be the position to have them at.
      We have seen aftermarket bellows have the clips positioned in the wrong spots…which can lead to offset crimping pressure on the bellows and lead to premature failure.

      Yes, mike the aluminum clips on the gimble bellow and the clips on the exhaust bellow, am I right the clips on the gimble bellow are at the 12 o'clock, position, and the exhaust bellow clips should be at the 6 o'clock position? Thanks for getting back to me,, love your videos.

    Good evening I have a question. I have a 87 boat and I’ll put a V6 mercury MerCruiser in it, but I’m having problems with the transom because one transom has a hydraulic power. Stern in the old transom does not have a place to attach the hydraulic power, stern on the inner plate of the transit, can you give me any advice?

    Hi mate, just wondering what the purpose of the binding clip is because I have mistakenly put the bellow on without it 😬

    • @DIYwithMichaelBorders
      @DIYwithMichaelBorders  4 місяці тому +1

      Good morning ☕️
      This clip is part of the anode system and helps protect your clamps that secure bellow in-place from getting corroded and failing.
      Long story short, if not installed…the clamp will corrode, begin to loosen, and fail over time…unfortunately weakening the grip on the bellow and watertight seal.
