Hello all just need some advice, I had my tilt trim pump replaced last year, with a new pump, when i went to pick it up he had told me that it was repaired and working well. Well after a few cyles at home the motor would no longer hold in the fully upright position. Needless to say my shaftchanic is no longer in buisness. the puzzling part to me is the motor rises perfectly put drops very quickly. it seems theres no resistance at all, ive checked for leaks but none are visible any ideas>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>:confused:

Valve body rebuild is a bad DIY project. Better off going to ebay or local hydraulics shop and finding someone who will do it for you.
