If after leaving engine trimmed up overnight and it doesn't leak down, next time out trim engine up before putting under load. Trim engine up a little and run at 3/4 throttle to prevent over revving. If all ok, stop and trim up a little more and try again. If porpoising or cavitation occurs trim down a little at a time to correct condition.. Once you determine optimum trim position then increase speed to WOT unless rpms seem too go high. If power trim leaks down either while sitting or while under load, seals or o rings inside the unit are leaking and need replacing. (oil leaks around piston inside trim cylinder) oil leak doesn't have to be visible for it to leak down. If trim doesn't hold engine in place, use a tilt pin through holes in transom bracket to hold engine in desired position until trim unit is repaired.
