Needing some info. I replaced the packing on my 2 trim cylinders and tilt cylinder. I have the motor up while filling it with fluid. I can get the 2 trim cylinder to go up, but the tilt won't engage. Do I just keep filling it till the tilt engages? I can manually lower it to where it sits on the trim but when I try an raise the motor further the trim starts to go down again. My thought is that it hasn't filled up yet., and it's bypassing. If you have any information please help me get back on the water. Thanks

Lift it all the way up, fill, cycle it up and down. Keep lifting up even if you have to do it manually, keep adding fluid as needed. Do this until all the cylinders are full. This should work.

I ordered new packing OEM, should be in next week, the fluid was bypassing the cylinders. That 150 isn't light I picked it up what feels like50 time.. Dora you recommend filling the 2 trim tubs before inserting the cylinders.

Hey Michael, just got an update. I figured out why the trim was slpping. The manual release fitting had a bad o ring. The OEM packing came in today. Got to take her out, caught my first keeper, only 2lbs but Hey.
