    Trim tilt down but not up.

    Trim has to get power from the Bat, in most cases there is a wire coming from the starter post to the trim. If it's not there it could come direct from the Bat Here is what is on the GI and GXI and some others

    12v boat hoist motor

    Agree, but how much power (kW or amps, other) can the regular motor produce? Once this is known then it can be compared to the Dewalt. I don't know, this is why I mentioned the additional gear reducer might be needed

    What VP 5.7 motor? Is this a new issue? Did it ever reach around 4800 rpm at WOT? Has fuel pressure been tested? Has a compression test been done?

    What would cause staining under sunpad?

    Don't know for sure would have to get behind it to determine. Might be the moisture started some rot, and the rot is causing the discoloration.

    What would cause staining under sunpad?

    Agree, that's moisture getting into the wood. Good thing is at least that part is easier to fix Sun pad - I was thinking of the bow of a cruiser, and agree the engine cover is also called that
