trim and tilt help please!

The engine is slowly slipping down in the water, it takes a few hours, then the prop will hold just under the water line. Any help as to what i am dealing with would be appreciated. What do i need to check, replace or fix? Thanks

It might be low on fluid.

I am no authority on the matter though!

More qualified members will answer shortly… I hope…:smiley:

If the rod gland packing is not leaking, than the cylinder my be bypassing.:wink:

Make sure your manual release valve is tight and it could be the pilot valve inside the pump also.

When you tilt the motor up, do you hear a gurgling sound or is there hesitation? If so you have air in the resevoir and are low on fluid
