    power trim issue, 87 45hp classic 50

    Is there anyway to test the pump itself? Can I jump power directly from the battery to one of the leads on the pump itself would that make it move if it still works? I don’t want to burn it up if that’s not how to test it. Sorry I’m a little lacking in my electrical knowledge.

    1975 Starcraft ss18 restoration

    I’ll post pics tonight when I have some time to take a few. I’ll move it now. Any reason your saying put the 70 on besides I know it runs? I’m kinda partial to Mercs which make me wanna dump a couple hundred into the wiring first to see if I can get it going. I know it could be a waste of money...
