 LT pulling to the right?? My 25hp LT go-devil pulls to the right! i have to keep both hands on it to keep it straight! and havin to hold the throttle at the same time gets really tiring on long runs!
What can i do solve this problem?? if anything?

Re: LT pulling to the right?? Try moving the load around, balance out everything... The only time mine will pull like that is when I have to much weight on one side of the boat...

Re: LT pulling to the right?? My SD does it when I have loads wrong or unbalanced. I need to bend my skeg a tad more I had TXSHOCKWAVE weld a piece on the end of the skeg to help relieve some of the pressure for the tiller.
You can also off set your motor should you have a balanced load and still having the same issues..
