Grab the foot with the motor in the normal run position and pull and push to see it there is any movement from the location of the lower rubber bushings (does the same as motor mounts) about half way between the powerhead and cavitation plate toward the front of the motor.
I forgot what their called. Isolation dampers or something.
Well it could be upper or lower motor mounts.

Sounds like a internal cylinder leak. I might have to rebuild the ram?

Should never come down at all.

Wait I have another Idea worth a check?

Look at the release screw, I had a friends that had vibrated lose a little and he kept getting a slow leak down!
