Hi I have an 1985, 70hp johnson that has a rattling tilt trim pump.
It goes up in trim and then goes fast in tilt no problem and does not stop at all.
Half way up it starts a rattle sound coming from the pump area.
It only makes this sound when going up.
It will make the sound one time and not the next.
The oil level is full and all pivot point are lubricated.
Can anyone explain the workings of the hydraulic circuit?
The pump goes one way to go up and opposite to go down but are there valves too?
Are there internal valves to stop motor falling down?
Are there any hydraulic circuit diagrams available for tilt trims?
I am thinking the pump or maybe there are valves rattling inside that area.
It still works but I am thinking this could be the start of a bigger problem and don't want to get stuck somewhere.
Any ideas or info are appreciated.
