Mercruiser I/O pulls hard to left

[Old Mission]

I just bought an 85 Sea Ray 18' 4 cyl. engine. At speed, it pulls very hard to the left. Is this normal prop walk? I never had an I/O before. I don't think it has power steering. Steering is easy at slow speed, wheel and outdrive move smoothly.
Somebody here must know WTF.
Thanks

Take a look and see if there is a trim tab on your drive. Sounds like it needs some adjustment or it fell off

Ayuh,.... Try adjustin' the trim/ torque tab over the prop,...

If that don't help,... Try a different prop...
