i have determined my tilt and trim motor is shot from all the dings and dots and dashes the previous owner has inflicted on it lol. my prob is tilt motor sierra # 18-6759 has 3 mounting holes and it seems impossible to get a screw driver in the back bolt without splitting motor . i'm hoping without pulling motor i can disconnect stirring and remove transom mount bolts and the two bolts port side of motor to get at trim motor ,correct me if i'm wrong plz thanks . no pics boat is a mess
