1981 mercury trim pump/motor

[jamesbalog]

Here is an update

I got everything put back together and added new oil. The trim motor will run but the outboard will not move.

The hoses were off for a month or more so im sure air got into the system. I cant seem to get the air bled/hoses primed with fluid. Ill mess with it again today and if i cant figure it out im going to hire someone who can.

i figured adding some oil would take all of 5 minutes and ive spent countless hours on this dumb thing, I Should have just left it alone to begin with, im past the point of fed up.


Anyone have any suggestions before this thing drives me crazy?
