I just took on another project for one of my sons, an 84 Evinrude 70 hp. Trim and tilt worked when demonstrated on the former owner's boat. The engine was left in an "half tilt" position and transported on it's side in the truck where it stayed under cover until today (about 2 months). When I got it onto my engine stand and hooked up the cables I found it no longer would work. The pump motor runs but the unit does not move up or down and the motor seems to possibly not have any load from the pump.
I think I recall that these units were sensitive to the state in which they were stored or transported and that they might "freeze up (develop an air lock I'd guess).
Any one have any suggestions? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm where's they guy Joe from West Central FL... he knows about these things?
