Hope someone can help. Working on trying to fix a leak on a tilt cylinder. Thought intially it was the o rings in the pivot pin between the tilt and trim cylinder but found instead after replacing the o rings on the pin that it is venting air and fluid from the bottom of the tilt cylinder. The cylinder is leaking fluid out of the botom and barely operates due to the low level and lack of pressure. The cylinderhas a pasage from to to bottom and t is comiou that psagenot a crack in the housing that I can see. Rebuilt the tilt cylinder with new o rings and still no change. Help, need to get this fix and save the water from the leak.
