Help!!!! Water in Trim tab Piston
 

I Just got my T-Bred with i believe K-planes but not sure if they are but they are over sized and beefed up. Point is there not stock and i have water in the piston. Also the piston if i push on it feel spongy, as if there was air in it like a coushin. I put the tab down or tried to only went 3/4 of the wat sounded like there wasnt enough fluid. anyway if there wasnt no big deal but as i left the tab down water came out of the lower seal, not the piston center seal the large one at the bottom. OK, Now can i have that rebuild new seals or do i need a new piston and where can i get it if so

sounds as if you have the older pisrons/ tabs. 2 piece design. either way call mercury i believe what u have is kekiefer tabs.

If it is a Merc one you can still get the seals/scrapers.

If it is Bennett then you can get those as well. Any chance you can get a picture?

Couldn't you take it to a hydraulic company that rebuilds/services rams?

not a bad idea, they may be able to help you. just be careful, as if they have not seen it, it may be deemed $$$$$ .
not that mercury isnt, but with merc parts for merc stuff, except for the chance of saving $, on a not so isolated piece or part, its a garanteed solution.

I found out that they are Hynautic Trim Tabs Rams and Indicators
