2001 Mercury outboard 90 hp power ELPTO trim problem

Check your fluid level. Raise engine all the way. From the rear look at the pump and you will see a plastic plug staring at you about the size of a quarter dollar. Remove the plug and you should see fluid even with the top of the threads.....adding any more oil and it will run out type thing. If not there go to wallyworld and get some PTT fluid (in the sporting goods dept). Fill till as stated. Replace the plug and run the PTT up and down, full distance a few times. Run the engine back all the way up, pull the plug and add as needed. If that doesn't solve your problem, come back.
