Re: Still Triming The Trim

Laughing at the still trimming the trim hmmm
Ok back to the future,
two wires are most likely your trim gauge wires, it hooks to your trim gauge sending a resistance reading to have the gauge function.

hook them to the gauge and see which way the gauge reads, if it reads backwards then re connect the wires the opposite way.

you can verify the wires with a dvm by measuring the resistance while you are triming the engine
