I put a new steering cable on the boat this summer but when it sits the stainless ram that runs through the outboard bracket tube keeps seizing up. The problem is from rust in the tube the motor pivots on. You'd think Evinrude would have used stainless for the tube. I cleaned it all out sprayed in the tube with Fluid Film but the problem keeps coming back. Anybody had this problem and know what the inside of the tube can be lubed with to prevent it from rusting. There is no grease nipple on the cable.
