Hey Guy's <br />I have a 1991 225 Johnson, when I trim the motor down it jumps and jerks while it goes down. If I apply prussure on it (holding the motor up when trimming down)it trims down smooth. Any advice?<br /><br />Stoked Not

Re: Trim Problem

There may be other causes but the few times I've encountered that problem, it was caused by a scored tilt cylinder.<br /><br />The inside diameter of the tilt cylinder, being scored, caused the tilt piston to hang up on those scores.
