Candle Posted October 9, 2017 Report Share Posted October 9, 2017 A question for you motorheads out there. What type/grade/service hydraulic fluid do I use to fill my Yammy trim/tilt reservoir? Is that the same for the steering? Many thanks! Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bamaskeet Posted October 9, 2017 Report Share Posted October 9, 2017 Any outboard dealer will stock trim and tilt fluid. West Marine and Academy Sports also carry it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonV Posted October 9, 2017 Report Share Posted October 9, 2017 Phillips X/C 5606-H aircraft hydraulic fluid will work if you want to go top of the line like "Lap It Up" suggests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you do that? I've used ATF also, just not temporarily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
