Merc trim and tilt problems

    I am having issues with my trim and tilt bleeding down while running down the river. Trim will bleed down quite quickly while at WOT. The tilt will also drop, especially if pressure is applied to the lower unit. (downward)

    Just wondering if this may be an easy fix it yourself thing, or a big bill at the shop. Any ideas?

    Almost sounds like your pressure screw is not set right on the pump/ resivor unit. That would cause the bleed off.

    Could be the valve in the unit leaking, check your release screw and make sure it hasn`t moved and is tight.
