Back on 4/22 I asked for assistance with my tilt/trim motor on a 1979 75hp Evinrude. Someone suggested that the Arco 6206 would be the correct one. Per the SELOC manual I have there was a unique single ram system used on some v4 units prior to 78. The diagrams of this fits what I have, so I am guessing the motor and tilt/trim are not a matched set. I did find a motor on DB Electrical that seemed to be perfect.

Now I am having problems with the manual release valve so I thought I would buy the manifold too. I got one from DB Electric but it is too small for this motor. I found a diagram on this forum that matches but I cannot find the part number.

It is part 95 and the pieces that go with it.

Anyone have a clue?

It is listed as -----NLA-----Used parts are an option.-----But post a picture of your 79 model 75 HP set-up.----Is it in fact a trim system or just tilt at low power only ??

GOOD WORDS....Ditch the Selco manual ..use a emergency toliet paper, better than 2 ply...…
The single ram system is tilt only and only single ram trim was for racing motors and used different pump(12V up 24V down),ram and bracket. You will be better off in long run to ditch this style and install a 3 ram system. Looked at your posted pics and it will if your midsection.

I figured that this was tilt only but since most places use the term "tilt trim" so did I. I did find someone that had that part available but it is $500. I think I will let someone who is interested in putting something back to factory original have that part. This motor did not come with this boat and I am in no way the original owner so I really don't care if it is original.

Now I am thinking of going with an aftermarket tilt system. I will post that on new thread, thanks.

The proper TRIM / TILT system used a " 3 wire motor "---The same system was used on 3 cylinder motors / 4 cylinder motors and the V-6 motors.-----I can't believe you can find a shop around the corner with a good used one.-----Or they switched to a 2 wire motor in about 81 I think .---Those up to about 1990 would all fit as well.-----Your location might have something to do with availability too.

Seems that this forum site is experiencing issues with uploading pics. Would someone that is following this thread please send me your email to mine at coffeediver@mac.com? I would like someone to look at my pics and give me suggestions. I did find a place to get the part I need for $75 or maybe going with an aftermarket tilt system like CMC PT-130 but would like advice.
