For the last year or so, since I installed a power trim into my 1995 Mercury 60hp, the unit would work fine on the way up but would intermittently skip on the way down. Well I tried to bleed it while it was on the boat a few times and could never get the problem to go away. Last night I...

Just curious, the stop pin is only for manual trim units right? I swapped to a power trim and like to be able to trim all the way in at times so I removed the stop pin. Should be fine right? Thanks

I've owned a few smaller HP two-stroke Outboards ranging from 9.9 HP to 60HP (and 2 9.9hp 4stroke's), never had any of them blow (knockin' on wood :lol:). Some of my buddies who run large bass boats have blown their powerheads, one on a brand new 250 XS Merc! This got me thinking, why do you...

I've always wondered, when you put the power trim in the full UP or DOWN position until it hits the end, how does it not strain or break itself? Is there a limiting switch inside the power trim unit or something?

Hey guys, I recently picked up a power trim unit for my Mercury 60hp. It currently has a manual tilt unit on it now. Looking for any advice before I get down to it, anything to lookout for or is the swap pretty straight forward? I still need to get the remote switches for it as well, I was...

I'm interested to see what the skinniest jack plate I could get for my tunnel hull might be? I have a tunnel hull and I believe the lower unit should be as close to the hull as possible. I'd rather not unbolt the entire outboard from the transom each time I swap to my jet lower unit. Anyone...

I'm looking at picking up a couple new rods (cranking & flipping) I was wondering if anyone here had a chance to try the G. Loomis E6X rods yet?

Did something happen to their company? Can't seem to find their ringer worms online..

I noticed some oil coming out of my manual trim on my 60hp Merc after my recent fishing trip. It wasn't much but it dripped a little bit, is it something I need to tear into? I don't use a transom saver, would that cause this? Thanks

Would I need to get the entire Mercury power trim assembly if I wanted to convert from manual trim to power trim? Is it possible to just install the electrical stuff and motor? How do people usually go about this? I was considering one of those CMC 130 units but I'm starting to think about not...

I have a 1997 Polar Kraft 1751 MVT Tunnel hull and would like to find out what is recommended in regards to how close or far away the outboard (prop) should be tilted to the boat? I have manual trim btw.

I finally got everything buttoned up and running. Now to fix this skeg before I hit something, do you guys think I need to get it welded or just get one of those skeg guards?

Anyone have any luck with any cheaper alternatives to hydro-turf? I need to put something down to cool the casting deck and rear bench seat, the aluminum gets super hot when the sun is out. Not looking to break the bank over it, thanks.

Could someone please tell me which female RECEPTACLE I need for this adapter? It came on my 6 gauge trolling motor wiring harness, thanks:

I'll be installing my lower unit tomorrow after I pick it up from the marine shop, they had to repair an issue with the shift rod and cam. My shift cable is disconnected inside the outboard. My Mercury outboard shifts by turning the shift shaft left & right. Should I leave it disconnected and...

Hello, I recently picked up a Minn Kota 45lb Edge that I'd like to mount to the deck of my 97' Polar Kraft Deck.. I'm looking for ideas on how to mount the trolling motor to the top of the boat being that I have a recessed deck (approx 3") Thanks :)
