I have a 1989 force 125 horse power that had a badd valve body on the tilt trim I replaced the valve body and the motor now when I refilled it and took it out for a test ride under a load it blows the breaker it will go up-and-down no problem without the motor having a load on it when I say a load I mean the prop turning putting pressure on the motor any ideas

The new pump might be binding and making it tougher to move under load?

How did you refill the reservoir ? Motor up or down when filling?
Up? you might have over filled it and pushed oil up into the electric motor??

OR?? the breakers 30 years old and tired?

Using the WAG system, wild a%$ guess :)
