Tighten Manual Trim Release
Submitted by Jackfrost80 on Fri, 2015-09-25 12:20
I don't have a torque screwdriver/wrench and pretty sure I've overtightened the manual release on my outboard. Is there a rule for how to tighten eg tighten and back off 1/8th etc or do I need to fork out for a tool that measures the torque?

Manual release of what
Are you on about the manual release plug on the tilt/trim hydraulic ram. What make of outboard are you on about.
Have you stripped the thread on the plug or in the hole.
