Leaking Trim/Trim Tab Pumps
All my pumps leak into the bilge under the pumps. I am tired of cleaning up the mess. I think that the reservoir or the caps on the reservoir are leaking.
Has anyone used the billet trim/tab reservoir made by GRP. They have billet caps and clear round Lexan reservoir body. Did they stop all the leaking mess?

I can't answer about GRP.
I did a cheap fix on my previous boat. I fabricated a couple of 12* blocks to go between the transom and the pump mounts. I think they leak because of the angle of most transoms. No more leaks!

What reservoirs did you order BAMA?
I'm considering replacing 3 of mine with the GRP style.
But from what it looks like, the volume of fluid is cut in half from the plastic ones that leak.
