Installed my 1983 Force 85 on my little Glastron and for the couple of times we were out on the lake the tilt and trim have worked fine. Now, the trimming portion works but the hydraulic lifting does not. The fluid level is full. Before I pull this thing apart, is there something common amoung these units I can check first?

Valve body failure is usually gradual. Sudden failure usually indicates problems in rams. However, you should not assume anything. Follow directions in manual for testing and isolating failure.
