I have 1986 Chaparrall, it has the omc 5.0 in it. Sometimes, not all the time, when I use my trim swithc (up or down), it shorts out badly while I am on the gas. It never does it when the engine is shut off, it all seems to operate just fine with the engine off. It seems to only be an issue when the engine is running and is intermittent then. Most of the time it goes great, and sometimes when you hit the trim button it goes crazy. I have ruled out the switch on the control handle. Seems like maybe when the motor has ran for a while or when the gas gauge gets to around 1/2 or especially when it get lower.
Any help is great, if you or someone you know has had this problem and has gotten it fixed and you could let me know what they did, that would be outstanding...
