I need to know how to add fluid to a parker trim unit. Last trip out the cap on the rod came loose and it leaked a good bit of fluid out. I have searched on here and at their web site and have only found a instruction manual, but it doesn't show how to add fluid. They say its sealed for life, but if that were the case I wouldn't need to add fluid. |

I have taken off the large screws on the front and back but they are for check valves. |

The only place I have not found a valve is this hole on the end. It is only about 3/16 and I don't think this is the fill hole. Any suggestions? |

Does anyone have a suggestion on what type of fluid? The fluid that leaked out looks like transmission or power steering fluid. |

So, why not just take the 5 mins and call gatortail and ask? No one that's read your post has the answer, but I bet gatortail does. #CFFITR #GhostBoat #Whoneedsphysicsihaveamudmotor |

They will tell you only the motor is serviceable the rest isn't. |

All their info I found says that, and it also says it's sealed for life but I disagree. If you take the motor off you can add fluid. I used atf. |

@jc - based on your picture I'm guessing that the unit needs to be completely removed and the rod extended to add oil there. |

It has to be standing up to fill it. The rod needs to be fully retracted or you will overfill it. Mine has been working fine since I add the fluid. |
