Default Mercruiser I/O tilt problem

I just took my boat out of winter storage. (late 80's 21 chriscraft)
Drive was stored in down position.

It will not tilt or trim up. Motor runs when I press down, but when I
press up it just clicks once in the rear and thats it...sounds like the
sol is firing...but not the motor. Doing some reading I found someone
noting that if the shift linkage is in revers it will not tilt up...but
have not had a chance to wiggle the shift lever around and make sure it
is not registering that way. I had to leave before being able to
troubleshoot any further.

I'm thinking if the pump is running then its likely ok, if it were
struggling or even running when I press up then I would think rams or
something else.

Any comments? limit switches maybe?
