    TILT TRIM MANUAL RELEASE VALVE

    My Mercury 250's S/N is in my signature.

    If I had a faulty or sticky tilt trim manual release valve what symptoms would it give me when I hit the tilt trim button?

    Symptoms may include, but are not necessarily limited to:

    -Trim motor runs but engine doesn't go up

    -Trim goes up and falls back down (at any speed from fast to overnight)

    -Everything works perfectly (until next time you attempt moving it)

    -Fluid leaking from manual relief valve.
