    Best video and knowledge I've heard. No 1 around here knew it was self bleeding saying you have to bleed it or leave the cap off

    I'll tell you what...i was stuck and this video was everything I'd been looking for to finish up my trim pump seal job. I lowered my boat nose, used a baby nose irrigation bulb and did about 4 cycles up and down adding fluid and boom it got me in business in no time...perfect how to video. EFF all the haters on your vid man. THANK YOU! THANK YOU...THANK YOU!!!

      your right on that and if you buy the power tilt/trim fluid that has the lid and it never work to fill it as I tried then did it this way and it work.

      thanks, some times these can be a pain to fill but this way made it easy as well I tried to use the power tilt/trim that had the cone lid yet it failed at filling it, then did it this way and this made it easy work

    It worked for me... had to keep forcing fluid in and seal up run up and down...then do it again... 3rd or 4th time started to work on it's own. I did it a couple more times after that. Now it is working fine.

    Thanks Dan! New subscribers. We've been trying to figure out how to do this on our Merc. Tryna get her ready. Fishing/Video making season is here!! Gonna try to hit the "Bash" this year. Need some new water. Hopefully it runs deeper than White River? Seems like just about everywhere we go in White River, we cant find anything deeper than 4 feet!! But great video man! Thanks again!!

    • @FatBoyDan
      @FatBoyDan  7 років тому +1

      thanks and the Wabash runs around 5-8ft at low stage yet there is deep pockets along many of the river bends from 20ft to even a deep 50ft hole up above terre haute boat ramp

  • @hansg6336
    @hansg6336 2 роки тому +1

    Marine tilt trim hydraulic fluid has certain emulsifiers in it and it sticks to parts to prevent water intrusion. If your seals are good, you can get away with conventional power steering or even 10W40 oil for super cheap and it will work. I would only do that if your motor is not still under warranty as it might void it.

      1993 johnson 70 .trim motor works. But won't lift engine.sat 2 yrs.i can manually lift it but it won't stay up. I'm gonna try adding fluid. The 3 pegs come out but once the weight of engine is on them they go down pretty quick .no fluid leaking out of seals.so I guessing it's empty.

    you ever have a day that the fish will not bite at all.?

    • @FatBoyDan
      @FatBoyDan  7 років тому

      MORNING GARDENER'S SHOW. yes many days on the water I catch no fish. it's just some days the fish don't want to bite or maybe it's the bait I use on that day or the location I fish. that's why I all ways carry dip bait in my tackle box it can make smaller catfish bite when other baits wont.
