Help! I can't get it up!! My top that is. I need to lift it up by hand to the half-way point before the motor takes over for the rest. I checked the pump in the trunk and it appears dry. I have yet to check the hydrolics behind the rear speakers for a leak. Any suggestions? (I mean besides Viagra)

i hope your fix is as easy as mine was, in the trunk on the left was a flap ,under flap is a valve make sure its pointed in the correct position. mine wasnt and my top needed my help. once corrected works perfect!
Isn't there a sticky somewhere on this w/ pics......?? If not, there needs to be.
Pull up the carpet on the driver side trunk to expose the pump. The proper fluid level marks are on the white/clear resevoir about midway up. If low, fill it up to the marks w/ mineral oil or 10W SAE oil (as I've recently seen posted). The top of the pump resevoir has a fill plug, remove it w/ an allen wrench and use a funnel to fill w/ fluid. Put the plug back in, cycle the top up/down a few times to flush out any air in the system. Top off the fluild again.
