Have to hold the motor
You have to hold up the motor to remove the two big bolts for the til/trim unit.

To of the bolts are missing and 1 is actually broken
Notice the 5 bolts?


Trim cylinder
Needed repair.

Notice the line on the trin cylinder? It should be straight with the base. As the bolts are missing its a wonder it worked at all.
The trim cylinder is not straight


These were the olny bolts left
1 of these is broken be remanded in the hole. 1 is actaully bent the other is Ok but was very loose. The spec call for 95 inch pounds to all 5 bolts.

The tilt cylinder should have has the 2 O rings replaced. I could not find or buy a spanner wrench that fit. I needed the smaller pined adjustabe type and got the bigger 1. If the tilt goes out I will fix it then. Same with the pump and motor.

Trim removed
I got fed up with the tim failing and takeing the tilt away also. I was informed to plug the trim hole in the pump and just use the tilt. So far works fine.
