I had a few spark plugs blow out of a Ford 4.6 V-8 a few years ago. (not all at the same time)... I found that helicoils failed after a short period of time. After hitting some F150 forums I learned of a system called "Timesert". I don't know if they would have the size you need for your spark...
LOL. At this point, I don't know my left from my right.... All of the information I could come up with including the part number for the prop in the link you posted indicates that the prop is right hand. Perhaps the direction on props on horsepower rated motors differ from props on trolling...
After breaking one of the blades off of my 1998 trolling motor I was shocked to see that props are no longer available... they havent been for 7+ years.
Ther model number for this unit is HBFL2G. 99. Not only is it not available, but it is a right hand propeller which makes it even harder to...
Like working on cars or anything else, sometimes it's nerve racking. You guys make this a great place to have fun while you are learning and sharing ideas that make all of our lives easier.
Thanks again!
Success! motor raises up and lowers down with ease and not a drop of leaking fluid.
1. I would strongly suggest anyone attempting to do this to use OEM parts. All I gained was experiance disassembling and reassembling the unit by using cheap parts.
2. Answering my own question... Yes. you can...
This is the same type tilt that is on my 50 HP.
Now that I am thinking about it, the ram will have to be extended in order to get to the fill plug once it is installed on the motor. I guess the question should be, should I at least put some oil in it before I install it on the motor?
OEM is on it's way. I will probably start another thread with a few questions concerning this. Hopwfully it will help others trying to rebuild one.
Thanks for your input!
I cheated as well only I think I used a set from amazon...really not sure because that is the only receipt that somehow didnt make it into my boat folder. Regardless, the unit worked fine for about two weeks... Now it blows fluid out of the top especially when lowering the motor. I guess I will...
Just a quick question about tilt and trim rebuild kits.
Five Star Marine has a rebuild kit listed that they say is modified with better seals than OEM. Have any of you had any experiance with these? Should I just stick with OEM?
Here is the breakdown drawing of this puppy...

The part number for this control is Evinrude/Johnson #0176917. It is long since obsolete. The years listed for this are 1999-2007, though I found a breakdown drawing of the same animal dated 1993.
After getting it removed from the boat and putting it in a vise, I found that if I pushed and held...
