The madd mexican is out of the water. Has been a average year but hose connection to out drive is toast. Anyone out there know if its an easy fix. I have found the part and im willing to do it myself if i can. Part is 34 bucks. Shop time is brutal. Anyone help or know..

Hey MM,
What brand of outdrive do you have?
Generally a one size fits all dual "suction cup" model will supply enough water to safely flush your engine.

Nelly, I suspect he is talking about the hydralic hoses to trim the outdrive. I haven't done one before so I don't have any advice, but it shouldn't be to hard. Not sure how you bleed them down once you get them on....

Sounds like you're working on a Volvo outdrive there MM.
While we're at it you may take a hard look at the bellows too.
And then there's the lower gearcase lube...
