Need some assistance with centering the steering

[Cobra Jet Steering LLC]

Disconnect the cables from the nozzles / rotate the wheel all the way to the right/ place a piece of tape on top of the wheel/ rotate the wheel all the way to the left/ place a piece of tape on top of the wheel / now rotate the wheel to point both pieces of tape as close as possible to the floor. Now place a piece of tape on top of the wheel / the wheel is now centered / lay a straight edge across the openings of the nozzles and have them flat against it with someone holding the straight edge against them while you readjust the cables to the hole in the nozzle steering arms . After that readjust the rudder with the nozzles and wheel the rudder should be at 90 degrees to the back of the boat with the steering wheel in dead center. do not do the other thing as that was for an old and different style boat it would not work on this boat

I noticed when I replaced my steering cable, the clevis from the steering cable to the nozzle control the left to right movement. Sometimes, its just as simple as unscrewing the clevins and allow the travel to move a little more. When I lube my steering cable, I have to remove the clevis and count 22-23 revolutions when removing and re-applying.
