I need to replace the motor cover seal for my 115 V4 Evinrude. iboats parts diagram shows two different (#4) seals for the engine cover but says they are both for models WITHOUT power tilt and trim. What the heck is that about? Are there enough characters with strong backs that have 115HP motors they lift manually that iboats caters to their needs more than us lazy guys with power tilt and trim? Anyone know where I can get a seal for my motor that unfortunately does have power tilt and trim?

I guess you are looking at a different picture than I am. Mine says #4 is the sound blanket. Are you looking for the long rubber seal strip that the motor cover sits on? I get part number 208076, superseded by 329548 for that one, no difference mentioned power trim or not. But don't take my word for it, verify it.

EDIT: Oops, I was looking at Johnson. But looking at Evinrude, I see what you are saying. I have no clue why the power trim is mentioned.

EDIT, EDIT Back to the Johnson book, it gives the same 208076, for all models, power trim or not.

EDIT, EDIT: EDIT: I'm going to make a really wild guess here. I'm thinking the difference may be the color. Further guessing the superseded number may be a universal color, like black (??)
