I have 2 zirc fittings that are right behind my seastar hydraulic steering...I can't get my grease gun to them. Is there anywhere to get some 45 or 90 fittings for this. I bought some for $3 at Sears, but they were 1/4-28 threads. Does anyone know what Metric thread pattern they are. My dealer said Yamaha doesn't sell them
I noticed the same thing yestarday when trying to grease mine up! I thought who was the wise guy to design this?
I haven't looked at mine yet, but will turning the motor all the way to one side give you access?

No, cause the hydraulic steering moves with the motor, so the shaft is always in front of it
If it's the fittings I'm thinking about, if you turn your engine all the way to the right or left, you'll be able to access them. I had the same problem until someone on here suggested I try it and to my surprise, it worked. Perhaps you have a different issue though. Good luck.
That the way we grease our and it was posted here sometimes ago. You'll have to do a search to find it.

Let us know where you get the elbows at.....what thread size they are. My dealer said Yamaha doesn't sell them
kbkindle on my 04 200hpdi i just turned motor to one side or the other like those guys said and it works. i had to replace a zirt on the middle of motor dont know what threads size but got mine at ace hardware if you cant get let me know they had more zirts . kb
I've got a 300 and use a flex neck on the greese gun. Press it on and hold it. Works! Seems to be "just enough room".
Good luck
