    You did not say what type motor you have but most models have a pressure release screw on the right side of your trim bracket...loosen it to release the pressure and you will be able to manually lift your engine.

    Sounds like you lost your pressure, I had a merc that shot out a stainless steal ball bearing and all the fluid escaped. I fixed the problem with a stainless steal self tapping screw and it fixed the problem.

    Hopefully this is an easy fix for you........G/L
