    79 evinrude 140 trim up but not down, but it does make noise when trying to go down?

    After research I thought it might be the relay but I'm not sure where it's at. This is a 1979 evinrude 140 on a 1978 fiberglass Lund. It has the trim motor and pump under the outboard, motor on left side and pump on right and I was messing with it yesterday, I added some hydraulic jack fluid...

    Re: Adjusting idle on a 1978 Evinrude 140 hp crossflow motor (model 14083C) Here is 5 pgs out of my manual regarding setting the timing for reference. Again, any help is greatly appreciated!!

    Adjusting idle on a 1978 Evinrude 140 hp crossflow motor (model 14083C)
