Johnson outboard problem help!!

[timhawkfs40]

Hey well ive got a Johnson seahorse 20hp (not sure on year) but when I screw the outboard to the transform via the clamp screws the outboard isnt level and is tilted up quite abit, does anyone know what could be causing this and a possible fix?

Sounds like the trim adjustment pin running through the bottom of the transom bracket is set too far out. Have you tried removing that and setting it back in a bit ?

Shallow drive possibly.

could it be the adjustment pin has been removed -the engine tilted -then pin has been replaced but the pin is then at the wrong side of the locating clamp jaws ,which wont let the engine leg drop into place .
