i put this up in other sites let see what you think. 1992 ranger 175 h.p 2 stk.

took it out last week for the first time....a lots of power . so i had my trim all the way
down , wife and i doing our maiden voyage....lol no time to play with it . didn't trim it up at all, and it seems to steer ezy going right and hard to turn left.
grease fitting are greased and motor turns left and right with ez in the drive way......i was doing around 30....35 mph or so. some say raise the trim in which that may solve the problem in which i didn't do. gotta be an explanation the guy before me ran
it in tourneys. thanks all

Yes, Trim it up after you get on plane. Slowly raise the trim and yo will start to hear your RPMs increase, you shold then feel better response to your steering. Just don`t trim it up so far that the prop starts coming out of the water.
