Okay guy's, I was out working on the boat this morning. I was greasing the steering cable and making sure everything was working fine, I noticed that when I try to bring the motor all the way down with the T&T button, the lower unit won't go all the way against the transom.....It powers up fine but when I try to power all the way down it stops about 3" from the bottom, the T&T motor is still running. After I let off the button, the motor slowly settles on it's own.

Okay, I worked the motor up and down, the tilt is fine, the problem is when the motor contacts the trim cylinders. As soon as the motor hits the trim cylinders it stops, I put pressure on the lower unit, it moves about 1/2" and then the trim works fine and it pulls the motor all the way down. it seems to just have a 1/2" dead spot.....

You need to tell us what motor or drive we're talking about here. I'll then move this to the appropriate repair forum.
