Default On Topic I hope

Most tilt systems use relays at the pump to handle the larger current
requirement of the pump. Thety are similar to ford starter relays if you've
worked on cars. The contacts often corrode or burn and stop passing
current. The relay pulls so you hear a click. If the pump still runs when
you try to tilt down then the pump is probably good. On the other hand if
it clicks both up and down that might be the pump.

Cobra outdrives will not tilt up, I hear a click in the engine
compartment when I hit the lift switch but zip happens. They both lifted
before I wintered the boat. Any suggestions on a fix? Thanks. John
