hahahaha.....

ok, well, forgot to mention tilt went out at the EXACT same time that the prop spun. What are the odds? Motor now trims, but does not tilt. After further inspection the cap on one of the trim rods was loose. Pretty confident this caused it to leak and no longer tilt. Now the questions I have:

1) Do you think I can just tighten it back down, refill and bleed and be ok?
2) Or do I need to replace the seals?
3) Can I get by with the harbor freight adjustable spanner wrench for $5 or do I need something with more @ss to turn/tighten that cap?

I put a pair of pliers on the cap and I can turn it some.

I had a Yamaha that the trim cylinder cap always came lose and same thing, I tigntened a few times same crap, so I took a hammer and punch and after I tightened it the last time, I put the punch on the spaner wrench hole and used a hammer to bang it tighty, Done never had it off again
