Re: tilt and trim noise

Are you sure it is not low on fluid and the noise you hear is air in fluid?

Re: tilt and trim noise

I had a similar noise problem with my suzuki tilt n trim, it was low on hydraulic fluid it even stayed stuck in the up position. I had to manualy lower it with the bleed screw on the side of the T&T motor to get it to function again. After i filled it, the noise went away and it no longer stayed stuck in the raised position. Check fluid, good luck!
