Two ?s one it has a 125hp force on the back. Can not tell if it is a 4 stroke or 2 ? There is no dip stick on motor and no reservoir in boat for auto mix. It has a 25 gallon gas tank. #2 hydraulic pump to trim up and down has no pressure I hear its motor kick right on but no pressure ?

Your 125 force outboard is a 2 stroke. Fuel mix is 50:1 with 87 octane.
on you power trim pump you may have water in the reservoir causing thickened oil, or possibly need to add oil.

The reservoir u refer to is that located next to the motor on the outside of the boat round c
ylinder with hydraulic lines if so how do u fill it?

Also as far as the fuel mix at 50:1 it has a internal gas tank with a standard gas cap on side of boat like a car. Do I just pour the oil in the side of the boat like the gas?

Yes add oil where you fill the gas. (Edit) Oil meaning two stroke outboard oil.
Wally world sells a plastic bottle with measurements on it.
The hydraulic reservoir should be located on the pump motor itself.
If you can put some pics on here so we can see what you have that would be helpful.
