My motor will raise and lower, OMC 92' 115 V115SLEND, but when it does there will be a clicking sound. I just put some quicksilver trim/tilt fluid in the resivoir thinking it was low, but the clicking sound is still there. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

May need to grease the tilt tube. Could be binding up some. Does it sound electrical or mechanical?

Rick,<br /><br /> Sounds mechanical, clicking not coming from the tilt motor, what kind of grease is good for this? And is there a fitting wehere you put the grease in?

I'll check both the solenoid and the tilt tube and get back with yall with my results. I've got a Seloc manual for my engine, this should tell where the solenoid is mounted?
