Just finishing a fantastic learning experience replacing a bad motor. Went to time it under load at the dock and the outdrive trim and tilt pump failed. Can those be rebuilt or where do I find a replacement? Thanks!!

The mechanic that has been advising and supervising my work is out of town for a week....

Found some answers in the 280 drive pdf posted by Don S. I have the earlier model with the low and high pressure hoses in front and at bottom. I guess I'll pull it apart and check the motor. Does anyone know if the motor crosses with a Sierra or other. Thanks again!!

Got my pump and new motor back from the starter/alternator re-build shop yesterday (they said I had water damage to the motor). Installed it and sweet after running up and down and topping the oil.
