Okay so I just put a new trim motor on my 2006 evenrude 70hp 4 stroke etech, and the tilt trim makes like a noise when all the way at the top or all the way at the bottom, when I push it all the way down with my foot it then it work until I try to out it all the way up, I’ve attatched a video. Any help would be appreciated

4 stroke etech?

It's E-tec.... and it's the finest 2 stroke outboard ever made.

Your download wouldn't play well when I download the video but common thing on that motor is if the big clamp nut isn't torque correctly you get that nasty sound.

Check the big nut on the end of your tilt tube and over torque a little if need be.

When BRP took over OMC they cleaned up their tolerances and shifted many of their rotax designs to the E-tec....or so I was told when I purchased my first one in 2011.

Either way it's not a 4 stroke as the poster is saying.
