    Q4 trim tab function

    Welcome Tabs of any kind will help bring the bow down, they also create drag. They will also reduce speed, just how much is the variable. The so called non-adjustable "smart" (funny) tab will not help level the boat

    Trim switch wiring review

    1992 bass tracker alarm keeps going off

    Welcome What motor do you have? The alarm works by a ground being applied by either the temp or oil switches. When key is turned ON power is applied to one side of the alarm. Find the oil and temp switches and disconnect wires one at a time until the alarm stops.

    Gun Safe
