  • Can't find tilt trim leak

    2001 VX225: had Tilt Trim seal leak and replaced seals in the 3 rams. All good for several months, but now it's losing fluid very slowly. Needs a small amount every 5th outing or so.

    I cannot determine where the leak is. Ram seals look ok. I looked around and did not see any obvious leak elsewhere. What are the other possible leak points I should be checking? And is there any trick that can be used to detect/locate ATF leaks? (Some magic spray that changes color on ATF? That would be nice!)

    Thanks in advance

    Clean real well and then look with a black light, I believe UV light is what they used looking for automatic trans
