seems like my motor trim needs some oil. Went to lake area marine but it was closed. Any ideas what kind of oil the trim uses. Thanks.

I would think regular hydraulic oil but, I'm no expert.

see what is in there first before you add more. drain a little out and if its yellow use motor oil sae30. if its red clear or really really thin use transmission fluid. the dextron 3 is what you want.
