"Is there a way to tighten or lock steering on an older 7.5 hp? In setting up deeprigger's on sides of my boat I have found that the boat must be moving forward and the motor wants to go to the right or left when I let go of it. It then cuts a line. I will have to tie it off unless I could tighten the steering up. on a lot of the older motorcycles they had a knob on the steering stem to tighten them up, a damper I think they called it. A friends 9.8 is worn to the point it has a "notch" in it's steering and goes straight at any speed, mine is in too good of condition to do that. Thanks for reading John"
