Water in Hydraulic Oil
I have replace my hydraulic rams end caps and Orings twice and still notice water in my trim pump oil. There is no oil leak from the rams so where is the water coming in from. I have had this problem for a while.

Re: Water in Hydraulic Oil
Since you seem sure that it isn't getting in at the seals...
Any chance that rain water drips between a hatch edge near the transom and drops onto the top of the pump or reservoir?
I had that once. It stopped when I put a bucket over the top.

If the water is coming in from the hoses would oil be coming out from it.
