Re: tilt and trim senders

If your talking Mercrusier.. I believe it was 1983.<br /><br />Also if your talking about trim position sensor, It was a option. If it was not installed the cover and wires thru the transom would be their but not the sensor.

Re: tilt and trim senders

What brand of drive are you talking about? Also, you'll likely get a better response if you post this in the Mercruiser/OMC/Volvo repair section.
