Power trim and tilt unit for V4 130hp Yamaha
Submitted by Andysuomi on Fri, 2012-10-05 15:35
Hi All,
I know it is a long shot but I am chasing a power trim and tilt unit for a v4 130hp 1999 model yamaha 2-stroke. Was just putting it out there in case anyone is wrecking an engine in this vintage or anything similar. I know that this same trim unit was used in the 115, 130, 150 and 200 2-strokes. Any help on tracking one down at a decent price would be much appreciated. I have uploaded a photo of my current unit which has a hole in the side of it.
Cheers,
tombstone

So did you end up buying the unit directly through eBay or via an American website? I have seen a few on there but was just a little reluctant to buy sight un seen from the other side of the world where postage is massive if there is something wrong.....

Wangler,
Sadly that isn't the right unit. I have tried all safe and they said they might have one that fits but I need to get down there to have a look at it. It was off a pretty late model engine as well so they were chasing a fair bit for it sadly.
