Hello,

New to this site and thought I'd post a new thread about my Bennett Trim Tabs leaking ATV fluid into the bilge. No signs of leaking inside, or outside on or near the trim tabs. But fluid level had to be refilled and is lowering after a few uses of the boat?

Is it possible for water and fluid to leak like this? IF so, what is the fix? or should I just replace the Hydraulics. I'm hoping it may be just the seal or o ring? Anyone else had or having this problem??

Thanks

Take some rags and wrap them around the lines then run up/down to see where it is. Most often they leak at the fitting unless the line is rubbing against something

How old is the Tab system?

Do you see any evidence of the fluid dripping down the back side of the reservoir?
