I apologize for the miscommunication the tab I was talking about is on the drive that acts like a rudder that you can make small adjustments either direction to straighten out any wander. My old OMC drive had one but my SX does not so it may not be any help to you anyway. I'm sure LouC has one on his drive so maybe he can explain it better than I can.
This trim tab is to adjust out any left or right "pull" in the steering that is caused by the prop at cruising speed. I guess with power steering it is really not necessary. I don't think that it has any affect on the back and forth wander that the OP is asking about...but I could be wrong.
