Hi all, I have bought a new trim motor for my 79 115hp evinrude. It seems simple enough but that is where I always am wrong. Three screws and I'm done...right? Well that's about all I know of when replacing this. Few things to note

1- the motor is still on the boat but can be removed "easily"

2- when I loosened the two accessible screws, fluid started leaking out. I am not sure if there is an o-ring or not.

Can someone give me a step by step crash course? Again, it seems simple enough and I do have some experience tinkering with motors so I am comfortable with this job.

Regards,

Jason
