What is this leaking and can I fix it?
« on: November 13, 2019, 11:17:28 AM »
When I filled the trim pump up it was really low I didn't see any leaks. Now that its full and working, I see fluid here. What is this and how can I fix it?

Its leaking under the pivot at the top.

its a fairly simple repair. I did the one on Phoenix at one point.  If my memory is correct its just 2 o-rings inside the housing and they can be matched up easily. I matched them up at the Caseih dealer I work for. there are also steel balls in there also do not lose them if you decide to tackle it.

It's the reverse lockout, fairly easy to correct as Brandon stated.
