Engine runs great, but it pulls to the right. I know I have to adjust the trim tab above the prop. However, I don't know how to loosen it up. There is a little hole but don't know if it is a screwdiver, nut, hex bolt, etc. I tried them all but nothing seems to grab what ever is in there to loosen up. Anybody have any ideas or run across this? Might be a silly question, but I am a noobie. Thanks for any suggestions.

Depending on year, it could also take a 5/16" Allen wrench, or a 1/2" socket.
