Re: mercury 1750

I'll bet you have the single-ram logsplitter trim system. It's off their racing models. Best trim system they ever had. The pump for those is the same as used in MerCruisers. I believe the trim has to be down on those. The fill is a large round-head screw on the corner of the reservior. It's up-right from the manual release valve.
