[QUOTE="onthewater102, post: 383699, member: 13702"] Hmm...I've got the same motor in a 20hp so I'll take a closer look at it tonight when I get in and see if I can find anything that would cause it to do that. Here is a link to the parts diagram. https://www.boats.net/parts/search/MercuryMarine/06535686/274/160/SWIVEL%20BRACKET%20ASSEMBLY/parts.html I'm thinking you may have a bad bushing, is there any lateral play in the swivel bracket when the motor is off (not running)? It wouldn't be much...1/8" of play or so would be my guess. [/QUOTE]
