Wow! What an amazing resource for a boat owner. It seems like there are many knowledgeable people in here who are willing to help.<br /><br />So here goes - I am about to embark on changing out the hydraulic trim pump for my Volvo 290 outdrive. It is the earlier of the two pumps. Is there anything that I should be very attentive to? Has anyone run into a common problem I might be able to avoid? Any tips would be greatly appreciated!!
