How much trim fluid should go in the pump? My pump is mounted on the outside of the transom and thus has a natural backwards tilt to it. When I remove the fill screw/plug and try to fill, I do not get much fluid in as it tends to run back out. I have tried lowering the tongue, but that doesn't gain me much.

it is full when it runs back out. Filling while up or down does not really matter with a 1988.
