Hope all had a great weekend. I finished up my 3 weeks of work on the 20' Dolphin. Driopped the boat in the water and she ran GREAT!!!. I have a '91 200 HP Mariner Offshore, pushed the boat about 55mph. Anyway, the boat was leaking a lil nit through the transom holes and the bilge pump hose came off the outlet and she sunk overnight.

I raised the boat, pickled the motor, hiosed everything with freshwater and WD40 and the boat fire up and ran great today. My only problem is the wires coming from the shifter (red, green, blue) cause the motor to tilt up when attached to the motor harness. Now the motor is all the way up and she will not go down. Is there some type of limit that I have hit that stops further operation? Hope someone here can help

Your tilt/trim switch has water in it take it out and use some brake clean to dry it if that don't work you need a new switch
