Tilt Trim servicing on Mercury 40hp 2 stroke
I have an 2001 B. Whaler Impact 12 with a Mercury 40hp 2 stroke. I developed a small leak in the trim pump, so I bought a seal kit. I changed the six seals on the shock rod and piston to target my problem area and put everything back together then I put in some trim fluid...wasn't too sure how much was needed. I ran it through several times and the unit will not go up or down, if lifted manually. I watched some YouTube tutorials and it seems like I may need to get a syringe and some plastic tubing and force the fluid in until its overflowing. Please help!
