    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.

    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 , 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

  • @jimbradley727
    @jimbradley727 Před 5 měsíci +1

    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..

  • @clayvick88
    @clayvick88 Před 2 měsíci +1

    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, 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?
