"I have a new to me 1993 Force

"I have a new to me 1993 Force Outboard 90hp engine. The starter barely spins, not even fast enough to engage the flywheel. Acts as if the battery is almost dead. Batteries are good, I think the starter is bad. Does it have a relay as well and how do you check it? Any suggestions?? Also the tilt/trim only goes up and not down. Fluid is full, any thoughts?? I am not very familar with the Force engines, only Evinrude. Thanks for your help."

"Have experienced the exact two problems.
Problem No 1 - Starter acting up as though battery is flat. I opened up the starter and found white jelly like substance inside, cleaned it out etc. and problem sorted out - also a good idea to replace the thin spring on the engaging cog.
Problem 2 - Trim/tilt - replace both relays (not necessary to replace the whole waterproof unit, only the relay insude. Preferrably use the original Hella part(there are a few variants with the same amount of pins, but from what I can gather, the one with a resistor is the correct one (Check part number)
Hope this helps although you have probably sorted this out by now, Cheers"
