225 Optimax Power Trim Shaft Leak

[StesoYusko]

I just replaced the power trim motor and engine goes up and down, however I developed a small leak under pressure at the lower shaft on the power trim unit. (Around the rod with the two dimples in it.

Shaft #9 in the diagram. It's the rod with two dimples in it.

Time to replace the whole assembly..... There is no fix for that leak.... You can pull it apart and you will see the corrosion has compromised the seal lands.....
