    lost trim function after testing coil

    I installed the trim limiter so I didn't have to guess if I was in the "safe zone" when trimming the drive. Usually the promblems I've had stem from wire corrosion and bad connections

    leaky throttle shaft on TBI

    I noticed some fuel leaking at the throttle shaft of my TBI and the throttle was sticking at idle, I've read about bushings for this problem. Has anyone done the bushings or had it done on their TBI?

    lost trim function after testing coil

    well I got the trim to start working again after splicing the broken black wire but the trim gauge is still pegged, I did try to adjust the sending unit to the 11 ohms prior to finding the broke wire, so I will revisit the sending unit setting tomorrow, thanks for following!

    lost trim function after testing coil

    update #3 found the Black wire broke at the backside of the trim limiter connector to the sending unit, can I cut the connector out and splice these wires? I know the sending unit uses resistance to tell the limiter the position of the drive, will splicing the wires affect that function?

    Trim tilt down but not up.

    I also have a Striper Sport Cabin with the same engine, I found a trim limiter on Ebay and installed it to keep my drive in the right range of trim while under way. Got tired of the guess work.

    lost trim function after testing coil

    update: I tried using the override switch and the drive comes up but won't go down. I'm sure it was in the right range to go up or down prior to the testing. So for some reason I only have trim up when I use the override switch.

    VSR vent line full of fuel

    pressure at test valve atop VSR at 9psi., so I guess I will try again on adjusting the float, right after I figure out why I lost O.D. trim function after testing ignition circuit.

    lost trim function after testing coil

    Hello All, I was doing some ignition testing and after doing the test in step 9 (see pic) I lost the trim function and the gauge is pegged, what could have happened? Note: I do have connection between the switch and the limiter.
