Hello everyone. I really am glad I found this site, seems to look great an has a lot of useful infomation, but, I have looked all over the site an can't find some answers that I need. I'm 45 years old an have been around boats all my life, thanks to my Dad, who was a very good outdoorsman. Hunting an fishing, an trapping. Learned a lot from him, but when I was growing up we never had a boat that had powertrim, ok, here is my problem, I got more into fishing, Bass fishing an have won some tournments. About 10 years ago, I bought a Grumman bass boat with a 1988 70hp nissian. Have never had any problems with it, but the other day started getting ready for bass fishing this year, an started to start the motor for the first time this year an the powertrim wouldn't work. You can hear the trim motor working, but it won't raise or lower the motor, well figured it needed some powertrim fluid, this is where the problems start. I don't know how to do it. Would someone please explain on how? To disengage the trim an put fluid in an how to get it working again. I would really apprecate it. Again Thank you...fishtj

Re: Powertrim?

Your best bet would be to pickup a service manual for the engine so that you have written instructions in front of you.
