I have a volvo penta outdrive. After I trim it up overnight it has drifted to the down position. What would cause this? Air in the system? There is now visible hydraulic fluid leak.

Ayuh,... Either the valving inside the pump, or the packing in the rams is Leaking internally...

Have you hit something? SX rams are notorious for internal leakage after taking a good impact. 'nutcase
