Yeah it has two cylinders to lift the motor.

Ayuh,.... All the I/Os do,.... The trim pumps for I/Os also only have 2 hyd. lines,...

If you've got 4 ports on the pump, it's an older Outboard trim pump,....

No luck locating the pump leak so I will be adding thread sealant to the 4 lines and putting it all back together. I am planning on monitoring the pump for leaks once its back together with a plastic catch pan under it to avoid the oil from going into the bilge area. I talked with a local shop and they advised this course of action before disassembling anything.

I also rewired the entire boat finally and installed new bilge and live-well pumps. The previous owner used garden hose from the pump to the livewell and from the bilge to the outtake on the side of the boat. Unreal what some people will rig up.
