Myfirst boat
New member
Hi, this is my first boat and have run into a snag...I have a late 80's 35hp mercury with a 3 ram tilt/trim. The center ram (tilt) was leaking so I purchased an O-ring kit and replaced them. I then bled the system and now the large piston works great up and works great down until it hits the smaller "trim" rams and then stops, they will not retract....If I hold in the button and push down on the motor they will retract ,but hard. I don't think it has air in the system . Everything worked fine before I fixed the leak in the tilt piston....any help would be appreciated!! Thanks
