I have a problem that I have never encountered before.
1. The tilt/trim on my motor got sluggish.
2. I attempted to add fluid by the required process.
3. This made it worse. Now, the motor runs but the unit will not tilt or trim. The main, center ram will not come up more than 1/4 of the way from the down position. I used a winch in my shop to try to lift the motor manually, and it will come up 1/4 of the way then it just stops. This is with the manual release screw wide open too.
4. I want to take the unit off to rebuild, but I can not get to the top pin.
What should I do?
