Yes, the pump is mounted inside the boat with two hoses to the motor. The fluid is not milky and I'm not sure what you mean by dragging except that it does not have the power to lift the motor under the extreme pressure while cruising. Keep in mind that the pump is working otherwise. Worn out brushes? I will check them today. Checkball, not sure what they are but will look them up. Thanks!

The checkballs are monuted inside of the pump in the pick-up tubes for the pump. Does the pump sound like it is running slower than normal. The SEA RAY I redid last year wasn't lifting the leg up properly so I pulled the pump apart and went through the pump. The brush's in it were sticking and not letting power to armeture under load. Simply pulled them out of there holders and sanded with a little 320 to clean them up. And the actual pump driveshaft that drove the main pump gear was galled. So I sanded the shaft and re-assembled, worked like new afterwards.

What you're saying about the brushes sticking and not allowing all the power to the armature makes a lot of sense. I will try it this weekend - Thanks FERM

By the way, I picked up a used one on e-bay for $20 (+18 shipping) figure it's worth it if only for the parts. The seller says it's working good and shipped it today.
