I've got some loose steering issues on my 2000 Outback LS and could use some advice. With the steering wheel being held in place, From the steering cable at the rudder I can move the steering cable in/out of the sleeve about an inch. Basically the cable will move in and out and I'm trying to figure where the slack is coming from. The block that holds the sleeve/cable at the rudder appears to be secure.
Does anyone have any past experience with this? Is it a cable issue or a helm issue? It's the standard teleflex big-t tilt helm (Sh91525p)....which i am told is not made anymore. I have not had a chance to fully inspect the helm. Otherwise, steering is smooth and easy. Do the gears within the helm wear down routinely... Boat has about 460 hours.
Thanks
