    Sea star Pro issues

    My sea star pro hydraulic keeps loosening up at the bolt on the motor tiller. 250 Pro 2 stroke. There’s side to side play in the motor from this loose nut/bolt and it’s causing my boat to fish tail as I trim up at WOT. I have hit it with 2 wrenches and tightened it until my hands were numb and the play is still there. Anyone ever experienced this or have any ideas? Thanks in advance.

    Moving your thread to the 3L Forum for you.

    If you would, please take a moment to review the Announcements at the top of the Forum, and be sure to provide the Required Info (serial number) when posting. Thanks!

    WHICH bolt(s) specifically are you tightening (at least provide the wrench size)?
