Hello all:<br /><br />I recently had the boat out and when I was parking it against the dock, I noticed an unusually large slick of some type of oily substance. Is it possible this could be hydraulic fluid?<br /><br />The reason I ask is that since around that time, if I try to keep the motor tilted up, it will only stay up for a few minutes and then the hydraulic system seems to lose pressure and the bottom of the motor falls back down like a stone.<br /><br />Any comments or suggestions on this would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
