Tilt/Trim Question

Tilt/Trim Question - 01/12/19 02:34 PM

I’ve recently had the trim pistons and seals replaced on my Yamaha 0X66. I’ve greased the piston ends. When the boat is in the water and I trim up at idol speed, it makes an awful noise that it never made before. The trim seems the go up/down just fine but it sounds like [censored]. I can seem to repeat the issue while the Boat it out of the water. I’m also not sure what it sounds like while getting on pad due to the noise from the motor, obviously. Can anyone tell me if this is in the hydraulics or if is possibly the trim motor failing?

Thanks

Try bleeding the system again.

put some grease on the end of the trim rams see if that helps if it is a pop pop pop sound that should take care of it

Thanks, I’ll try bleeding the system. I’ll have to do some research before hand since that’s a procedure I’ve never performed myself. Any insight or tips?

Thanks again
