1987 225 Johnson TnT Issues Pic/Video Included

[Blake0912]

I had posted on here last week about my power trim acting up, I added Fluid did the run it up and down a few times etc..., But I'm still having issues its not bouncing as hard as it was and where the engine pivots is all greased up and the motor does not get hung up anymore. But now when I lower it it basically free falls on the large ram until it hit the two smaller rams and just does not sound right, but It goes up fine.

I noticed one the copper line running from the reservoir to the large ram it has some type of bolt that holds the tube in place and assume seals it properly, but the side going into the large ram the bolt has corroded away and the line is still in the ram but maybe since this bolt is not secure its letting some air into the system making it act up like it is?

Here is a pic of the copper line/Bolt that I believe to be the issue.

And here is a video of the motor going up and down, maybe this can help somebody identify the issue I am having.



This Video is a view of the rams as its lowering.




Thanks for taking the time to look at my post, any info will help.

I don't know much about those things but, it looks to me like the tubing and the nut is where the problem is. I would fix that first since it's the most obvious but, I'm guessing here.
