Setting Trim Angle While Running Engine at Idle Speed

The exhaust relief hole on the outboard may become submerged if the

outboard is trimmed full‑in while running at idle speed. This will cause exhaust

restriction, rough idle, excessive smoke, and fouled spark plugs. If this

condition exists, trim the outboard up until the exhaust relief hole is out of the

water. The outboard should be lowered for accelerating from a standing start or

from idle speed.
