Re: 50hp Force Trim fluid replacement
Problem probably not caused by low fluid, but you need to check it. <br /><br />Fluid, tilt and trim fluid or transmission fluid.<br />Or, if when you open it up, you see motor oil, then fill it with 10w30 motor oil.<br /><br />I believe you have a Force EXTERNAL unit. Meaning that the hydrolic cylinder is between the engine mounts, but the electric motor and pump are mounted off to the side, on the outside of the engine mount.<br /><br />You have an electric motor that is mounted on top of a pump(base).<br />Raise or lower the engine so that the pump and trim motor is vertical. Open the large 5/8 inch? plug which is located just below the motor, on the pump. Be carefull, the plug is made out of plastic. Fill to the bottom of the hole with fluid. <br /><br />Could be that your leakdown problem is caused by worn out orings in the pump assembly.
