1978 Evinrude 85 HP Tilt Trim Rebuild Started

[stevesmerc]

Have started the rebuild of the tilt trim unit. Everything was going great, taking pictures as I removed each item. However what I didn't do was note the location of the two springs under the reservoir manifold plate. I pulled the schematic up on the web sites and while it shows the location of the springs I am unable to determine which springs goes where. The spring item number are 19 and 76. If someone could provide some information such as the length of the springs per item number I would appreciate it. The pictures I took show them in place but gives no help in which goes where.
Thank you in advance.

Have looked at buying a service manual for the motor. Which service manuals are the best? Have purchased manuals in the past that does not do a good job of describing the details.

An update that I hope might help someone in the future. During the tear down of the tilt trim unit even with taking pictures ( top down view) I was unable to determine which spring went where. After buying a manual and looking at marine engine.com schematic realized that by purchasing the springs by part number I could determine the correct location. Granted a semi expensive way to go about it I will be able to complete the rebuild. Lesson learned take multiple pictures from all angles. Hope this help someone.
