raised motor all the way up, fill unit with trim/tilt fluid or SAE30W/SAE20W oil (no ATF), then run the motor up and down a few times (self bleeding) Let it sit 1/2 hour and check/top off fluid.

I read lastnight where it said self bleeding on a google search and tried that sevel times no luck. U can lift the motor up and push down on the foot and feel the air in the system. Maybe the trim has another problem?
