    I am under the impesssion that larger outboard jets with tiller steering generate little or no steering torque. If someone has first hand experience would they please let me know if this is correct or not?

    There is absolutely no torque steer with an outboard jet…steering my 150 is a one finger affair.

    What he said…OB Jets should have little or no torque.

    That being said, torque can occur if the “torque tab” is mis-adjusted inside the pump. Also, a rock or obstruction on the exit side of the pump, can cause steering torque.
