As to my post of a week ago,(when using the tilt mechanism only) the T/T motor made a weird sound. Bought the recommended T/T fluid and replaced the old fluid a per the manual, no more noise everything is working just fine! At the marina in Toronto that I frequent I asked the mechanic there about leaving the T/T "rams" extended, he didn't recommend doing that because, QUOTE: you are leaving the cylinders under "pressure" which not a good thing! Just wanted to pass this information on, take it for what it's worth!

Re: Trim & Tilt?

Also, it keeps the rods out of the weather and grim to minimize wiper and seal wear
