Hi guys I'm new to this forum, but I frequent others and I'm having a hard time trying to figure out what is wrong with my power trim.
So here is the problem, My motor will trim up just fine with no issues, But on the way down it bounces hard and when it does not bounce it just goes into a free fall until it hits the two smaller slow trim rams. I have tried to bleed the system and add fluid ( Was not low on fluid ) I assume i'm getting air into the system somehow , but there is no water leaking into it because the oil in it is clean.
I noticed the metal line going from the reservoir to the large trim ram has a corroded bolt on the side going into the trim ram, but the line is still snug and not letting water in. Can anyone tell me what the function of this is , and could this be causing the issues I'm having?
Here is a pic of the bolt I'm referring to.
Thanks in advance!
