I don't know a thing about a trim pump so bear with me. My pump started making a terrible noise today while fishing, so I went and took the boat out, and at the ramp, I trimmed it. As it trimmed I noticed fluid leaking out of the top line on the assembly(small metal hose has a pin hole)I need to know what the proper name for this line is so I can call around, and where I might purchase one that is in stock(best chance to find it locally)? The motor is a '97 Yammie 2 stroke.
I also could use some advice on what kind of fluid to get to fill it back up, and the proper method to fill it up again?
Please help me 'cause I can't bear to see her sick like this, and I am supposed to be going out of town fishing this weekend, which is why I can't risk putting her in the shop. They might take to long with her.
Thanks, Fish Masterson.

Thanks Wevans, it looks like I may have found the right part and got it ordered today from Big Bend in Perry. No one had one in stock, as I assumed. Big Bend seemed sure that they could have it here by Wednesday

The part had a highly technical name just as I suspected it would. They called it "PIPE"

Thanks again, Fish Masterson
