Re: trim motor

Are you sure the battery is fully charged? Mine tends to act like that when the battery is low. just a thought.

Re: trim motor

If I understand you right your MErc is a 1985 or 85 hp? If it is a 1985 I think they have a two stage trim, from fully down the trim portion does move the motor slowly then the tilt portion kicks in and the speed picks up a bunch.<br /><br />I sure hope this helps you in some way.<br /><br />Craig
