  1. Now now Paul.. it won't do that. I pulled 18,000 lbs with my Sierra 1500, axle sitting on the stop rubbers. Collingwood to Penetang x 3 trips. I didn't make a 4th trip after cooking the brakes on a hill..... :w00t::D

     

    Wayne,I would give that a try in a 2010 and up Ferd.But any thing earlier might get you to the end of the drive.

  2. The valve body is leaking internally as the system is a two way.Hope you can find a new block,as I would just remove,disassemble and replace the o-rings.Long as there is no visible wear on the spool valve.

     

    What do you mean by``valve body``. In hydraulics this term is used for multiple control valve delivering oil to one function and also know to be used

    as a term for a flow divider.Which holds multiple spools and or multiple control valves.

  3. The tilt and trim system looks very much like my old V4 OMC. 2 short throw cylinders for the trim and a single long throw for the tilt. At full tilt position I have a spring loaded lever that you flip down and you warned to slightly lower the tilt so that this bears the weight of the engine rather than the hydraulics, also you are warned not to operate the engine under power with the motor trimmed past the full extension of the 2 trim cylinders, just saying this is how my manual reads. As far as the problem goes and I am no hydraulic specialist, I wonder if somehow maybe the system has got some air into the cylinders, air being compressable and fluid not it could produce the symtoms as related here, maybe operated with low fluid and air was injected into the cylinders, anyone know if this system is self bleeding or how to bleed it, could be worth a try.

     

    Yes. On a short throw cylinder the air needs to be bled out.Same as single line activation.
