Hi all, very informative site....i have already learned alot...dont see much on the Verado..so i will post this as well as a reply to "my motor is making oil"...sorry for the dupe ...
not many hours on it i would guess 20 - 40 hours max its probably even less..any way approx a month ago the trim stopped working so we brought it in to be fixed and West Marine stated they fixed it...hydrolic fluid or a bubble or new cylinder not sure...anyway we got it back 2 weeks ago and i noticed it was dripping a little oil-ish, black-ish gas smelling fluid from a little hole (the dealer stated that it was residual).....from the overflow hole i guess..(btw i have been reading alot of related topics in this forum)...so recently beeps have been happening and this past weekend the "oil pressure low" came on and the beeps lasted longer, the motor sounds a little louder, but the gauge reads "temp ok", "oil psi ok",and whatever the third reading is i dont remember off hand that is ok as well.......... there is the occasional stall as well, this happens when it beeps... very rare... In addition the trim stopped working again it does not lift the engine but it does drop the engine..i do notice if i put it in reverse slowly and use the tilt up it works......
...any thoughts anyone ? any comment would be greatly appreciated
