Steering control problem

[BassHunter0123]

got a 18.5ft stratos bass boat with evinrude 150 intruder... im haveing some issues with my steering. seems to always want to pull one way and turning the other way is super super hard. any thoughts? always wants to turn left by itself and right is very hard to turn.
thanks

Adjust the torque tab in the direction of the helm (to port).

Re: Steering control problem

on the lower unit next to the prop (looks like a little fin ) theres a bolt in the middle of it loosen it up and turn it the OPPOSITE way its helming to

dont go all crazy with it though a little turn goes a long way

Re: Steering control problem

ok i figured out what the torque tab is i just need to figure out which way to turn it. also i am noting also that this does this in and out of water

steering cable might be sticky ... might have to pull it out and clean the tube and the cable end

Re: Steering control problem

it basically always wants to turn left and super hard to turn right. in and out of water. when im on the water i really gotta hold the wheel hard or it will just want to turn
