Location: Owatonna,MN | I have a 100 Merc. with a leaky trim pump or ram. Can't tell exactly where it is coming from. Is it better/cheaper to rebuild or just replace. If replace is best option is it something I can do myself?
Thanks |

| what year is it?
We are having a similiar problem with an 1988 one...it ends up being replacement is the only option.
I would also love to know if we can do the work out selves!

Location: Owatonna,MN | Mine is a 1997... I have a seasonal camper on the Chip. and leave it up there all summer. I put it on the trailer when I leave on Sunday and when I get back Friday night it has leaked it's fluid out. If I am just up for the weekend it will be fine but when I go for a week I have to pull it out and fill it. Just started doing it toward the end of the year last year. I was told that when it gets to that point it is better just to replace it . I am a former truck mechanic so I like to fix things myself. Any advice on replacing it would be helpful.
Thanks |

Probably right Mike. It is just killing us to not have the boat in the water being able to fish at this point...Thank God I have some new friends that I am going out with next weekend! My Poor boat partner and owner of the boat we use will not have been fishing for a month by the time he gets it fixed
