    Showa 4T3C SA-6 (Honda BF75 A5) tilt trim issues and need help/parts

    This started with the outboard not being able to trim up under load, and running really slow on the tilt ram. So I put new seals in it, cleaned everything up.

    40 Horse engine trouble help please

    I started running the battery of tests as I have the OEM manual, but so far everything tests good. I figured I would run it by some other people and see if they know what it "could be". The boat and motor are new to me but have minimal actual use. The motor is a pull start 40 horse E40RETB of...
