    Fluid for tilt/trim

    I have a tilt/trim assembly which consists of motor on the left, and fluid canister on the right. (1985 175 Yamaha) How do I get all my fluid into it and prime this thing? I cannot figure it out. Any help appreciated.

    What is this?

    What do you call the little adaptor that fits on the shaft on the bottom of the trim motor. Its like an extension of the shaft, and it fits into the insert of the pump. It apparently is like some sort of shear pin that will break to prevent something major form breaking. What do I call this...

    READY TO INSTALL !!!!!

    I had some questions answered about trim hydraulic fluid. I now know I can use Dexron ATF. One question is...... I lost fluid during removal of my trim motor (cracked open lines to lift motor up out of way). I dont know what type of fluid is currently in it. Can I just add the ATF to what is...

    Hydraulic Fluid for tilt

    1984 yamaha 175. Not that it may make any difference, but any recommendations for the fluid type I will need to use for my tilt/trim? Can I cut corners from a marine dealer, or "Yamaha" brand fluid? What is a good brand, that will do the same trick and will save me a little money? Thanks

    Fuel Gauge

    How do I test a fuel gauge to see if it works? I bought the boat with it not working (1989 skeeter SF 175 DF). What do I need to know, or check for, to get it operating? How do I get started, besides opening my first beer, staring at it, and wondering when it will just "git rite"? Thanks

    Hydraulic fluid for tilt/trim

    I have a 1984 175 Yamaha. I am waiting for the arrival of my tilt/trim motor. To remove my tilt/trim motor, I had to break open my hydraulic lines to free up my motor in order to "hand raise" it up out of the way. Once I install my motor, what do I need to do to add hydraulic fluid. Where do I...

    I received a link to a cool little video. I thought it would be interesting to share with people of the water. I have heard of this but have never seen it until this video. It was http://www.harleyinventory.com/movies/videos.html

    Parts

    Can anyone lead me to a site where I can view parts and order them. I have a 1984 Yamaha 175 outboard. I need the stator motor, etc, etc., etc. and whatever you call all of that stuff. Is there a site that may supply the parts I need at a reasonable price rather than the dealer markups I am...

    1980 Evinrude 25 horse

    Does anybody know how the wiring is constructed for the solenoid/starter/starter switch? Or however you may word that. I have attached a pic of its present layout. How does it need to be? Do I need a wire connecting "A" and "B" together? Does "C" need anything on it, and going somewhere? Any...

    Tilt/Trim

    My tilt/trim motor is out. My motor is all the way down. I need to get my boat to another location for repair, but I cannot pull it down the road. How can I get the motor tilted up. Can I disconnect a hydraulic line or something. Any info would be appreciated. It's a 1989 Skeeter with a Yamaha...

    My tilt

    I tried cleaning the all three relays. My tilt still does the clicking in the relays. I have noticed that after the boat sits overnight (period of time), the tilt works for maybe 20 to 30 seconds. It will then just stop working and go back to clicking. I try it out randomly (hourly or so) during...

    Tilt works every now and then

    I have an '89 Skeeter bass boat w/ an '84 Yamaha 175. The tilt just started acting quirky. It will work one minute..and the next, it is doing nothing but clicking in the motor (like a relay mounted to it). There are a few relays on the side of the engine. I can hear the clicks but cant pinpoint...
