Thank you Dave, this was an important video for us to create and have available to the DIY community. Merry Christmas to you and yours.

nice job!. when cycling up/down... wait a min between cycles. Air gets whipped into fluid/reservoir. Waiting a few gives air a chance to separate from oil.

Good morning ☕️ thank you. We are honored you took the time to share your thoughts and additional advice. Any and all helpful info is greatly appreciated here on our channel. 😁👍🧰

Great instructions, thank you!

Good morning , what if I only opened the system up inside the boat to replace the o rings on the bottom of the pump ( older style ) I had to remove the pump from the boat , do I drill need to bleed the system like this ? Rams and hoses should still be full of oil I would think ...... Thanks for your time

I have a 2001 5.0 Mercruiser. My manual says I can use 10W30 or 10W40 engine oil for the trim pump. Far cheaper than the Mercruiser trim fluid.

Good morning ☕️ we appreciate you watching and sharing your thoughts and feedback, always welcome here on our channel. Not a bad idea…🤔

If I am only replacing the lines and not the trim ram, is the bleeding less comprehensive?? I was hoping that I literally could just crack the lines at the connection to the rams and get the air out of the lines that way.. Plz advise..

same question

Can you drain all the fluid out by just taking those lines off and trimming up? Think my fluid needs replaced to not just topped off

Thanks for watching ☕️ You can however please please please don’t run it dry. You will need to replace pump motor and possibly other parts…not good.

Hi Mike.. Why does my tilt up/down works perfectly but my trim will only work on the down and not up? Cant be solenoids if tilt up/down is working fine.. Also I hv cleaned the trim limiter connections so I am at a loss as tk what else tk do.. Thoughts?

@@TedDegenhart-f4c Thanks for watching, any update? Do you see any signs of damage to the wiring feeding into and out of the trim solenoids? It’s most common for the issue to be electrically as opposed to hydraulically. Any signs of damage to the trim sender or limit switches installed on outdrive?

I have metal reservoir so how do I refill fluid in it?
