I need some help. I just purchased a 1998 Monterey Explorer Deck boat and, for the most part, it has been fine. One problem I am having is with the steering...about 3" of play on either side. I can't find much information about the boat online except for a owners manual from 2004 here in the forum. I really need to fix this as it is driving me crazy not being able to keep the boat straight when out in the water. Thanks in advance for any help!

With the engine running or off, there is 3" of play in the steering wheel. I found that I have a Teleflex cable system and when I turn the wheel, I can hear the cable moving inside the Teleflex round housing but the outdrive will not move until the steering wheel is turned about 3".
