Bayliner 175 leg wont go down???

[Alex875]

Hi

I used my boat about 8 weeks ago and all workrd fine its been on the driveway since.

I went out today to have a play untill i realised the leg wont go down it makes all the right noises goes down about half inch and thats it.

Checked the oil that was perfect what can it be? i have just taken a deposit on the boat and have 2 weeks to fix it.

Any help would be great

P.s i topped the oil up under the hood it was about 2 inch under full. is there anywhere else i should put hydrolic oil?

Year would help a little. Have you tried to cycle it back up again? Or is it completely stuck?
You should always leave your lower unit in the DOWN position if you plan on any storage over a week of so. Keeps the seals from "setting" and eventually cracking.
