i have a force 125 that had the motor kept leaking down and i have read alot of post about people having the same problem i took the tilt cylinder off and plugged the bottom hose and pressed the cylinder in and one of the check valves was letting fluid by there are three check valves two go one way and one goes the other the two the same are there for if u hit a stump or anything in the water to let the motor come up but i slowly welded the one check valve up by tacking and cooling then ground it down flush reasembled and now no more leaking motor!!!!! any questions just email me jboygrizzly@yahoo.com
