Trim/Tilt Problem « on: August 09, 2003, 08:09:45 PM » Does anybody know if there is a place in town to purchase used power trim parts for Force outboards. I took mine apart and now it will only trim up but not down. 1987 Force 125 Logged Mike Cork Father Time Admin Location: NW Louisiana Online Gender: Posts: 37,315 Get the Net it's a Hawg Re:Trim/Tilt Problem « Reply #1 on: August 09, 2003, 08:18:25 PM » Moores Marine in Benton has somewhat of a collection of boat parts also Caddo Marine. Is something broke in yours or do you think you may have put it together wrong? Just wondering if a second shot at the rebuild might be worth it. I am was Hydraulic Mechanic by trade and I know that something as simple as a check valve put in backwards or upside down could cause the symptoms you are having Logged I'd like to say Thank You to the companies that ensure I do my best: Legend Boats - Mercury Marine - Power Pole Dobyns Rods - Elite Tungsten JeffC UB Member Location: Bossier City Offline Gender: Posts: 11 "Will Fish For Food!" Re:Trim/Tilt Problem « Reply #2 on: August 10, 2003, 08:47:29 AM » Nothing is broken. My motor would not stay up so I took the thing apart to change the o-rings inside. The kicker is that I had no need to take apart the section I think I put together wrong. Just took it apart to check it. Thanks for the info. I'll call the shops you mentioned to see if i can get some help.

I know of one other place I will try to dig the number up for you.....

Re:Trim/Tilt Problem « Reply #5 on: August 10, 2003, 03:23:59 PM » Maybe you should just keep taking it apart and putting it back together until it works. Check every part, make sure it is properly seated....in correctly...and all that kind of stuff. I'm not a mechanic....but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night!!!

Re:Trim/Tilt Problem « Reply #6 on: August 10, 2003, 05:46:25 PM » Hey Guys I got it fixed. I took it apart and reassembled it about 10 times. Gues that werks sometimes. Actually, one bearing was in the right place at the wrong time. Simply reinstalling all the bearings with the cover upside down made them naturally fall into the correct places. If anyone ever needs any advise on 1987 Force 125 power trim valve body assembly I am now almost qualified to give advise. ( I can now break this thing down and put it back together in about 20 minutes) Thanks again everyone for trying to help!

Re:Trim/Tilt Problem « Reply #10 on: August 11, 2003, 01:02:18 PM » Papa, I'm pretty sure that your scenario works the other way; when Trey or Robbie can't afford it, then they call you. And men are NOT stubborn; they just stand firm in their beliefs. Logged Life is a B........each! MotherNature Watching Over You!
