Tilt Seal 70hp Yamaha 1996

Member Personal Page Posts: 30 Comments: 0 Joined: 11/16/08	I have a 1985 Whaler with a 70 Yamaha. The tilt piston was leaking, so I tore it apart. I went to the local marine parts store who pulled up a page on boats.net, and did not show the dust/water seal for the piston. I am pretty sure that I have found the other parts needed to repair the leaking piston. Does anyone know the proper part number to replace the damaged dust/water seal on the tilt piston? The number read: 70TLRU 6H3 L 488028 Any help is appreciated! Crash Edited by Joe Kriz on 09/21/12 - 6:58 PM

The parts you need should be a lock ring, a scraper and a seal. The lockring and the scraper are reuseable, the seal should have a part number on it, take it to an industrial supply house and they should be able to get you a replacement. Thats what I did when I rebuilt the tilt cylinder on my merc.

I would call or email SIM Yamaha. They are well respected on several forums. http://www.simyamaha.com/ For parts, email [mail]rachelle@shipyardisland.com[/mail]

The trim cylinder is the one with the small rod with the ball end, the tilt cylinder is the bigger one attached at both ends. Edited by Tom W Clark on 09/24/12 - 8:57 AM

If you scroll to the bottom of the list you see that the 2006 and Later 2-stroke 90TLR uses the same assembly, if you click on the link for the 2006 90TLR it brings up this page that shows the seals separately. http://www.boats.net/parts/search/Yam...parts.html [ Moderator's note: To magically make a URL into a clickable link, simply highlight it and then click the URL button. ] Edited by Tom W Clark on 09/24/12 - 9:45 AM
