1995 60HP Mariner with power tilt.<br />The tilt will raise the outboard everytime no problem. When I go to lower it the tilt pump motor will not always run. If I bump the switch up then down it seems to take off. I don't believe it is the switch since it reacts the same from the outboard or the throttle switches.<br />Also how full should the pump be with fluid? With the motor raised when I open the fill hole I can't really see any fluid. Maybe this is my problem. What fluid should I use to fill it?

There is a warning lable on the side saying not to open it when down. It is under pressure.
