I charged the battery and it starts the motor easily. Unfortunately the boat is 80 miles away. The next time I'm there I will use a different battery and see if that makes a difference.
Yes, It's a tiller. Neither controls, tiller handle or motor controls, work the tilt/trim when out of the water. It's a tiller. I didn't try the controls on the motor while I was planed out. Tiller controls work while planed out. Would that be dirty connections on the tilt/trim switch? Or...
The tilt/trim will not tilt or trim up or down when the motor is on the trailer or in the water while off or idling. It will tilt/ trim up and down when the motor is planed out. It started by being a little sluggish on the trailer. I thought maybe the battery was getting low but it would start...
I have a Honda 4 stroke 40 horse 4 stroke. I have never owned a 4 stroke outboard before. What kind of engine oil should I use on this and is there a synthetic available? Thanks
