1989 70 hp Bearing housing assy. w/pic

[roger46982]

My bearing housing has a chip out of it and leaks, repair manual calls for 397188 part. Is there others that will fit this motor? Or can this be repaired?

you can fit a 1977 model no 70773s 70hp bearing housing & there are a few other models from that year onwards that will fit . the only difference is that you just wont have the anode on those models

Thanx that is what I needed to know, found a couple used and new but was unsure of the fit. Thought i would be good from 1977 to 2006?

Re: 1989 70 hp Bearing housing assy. w/pic

you will find my formula on the site type in , Durbans epoxy under search , i use it for painting & CASTING MOULDS you find it then i tell u what to do you will have to take the gear box housing out if the damage is behind the seal k

Re: 1989 70 hp Bearing housing assy. w/pic

Will do.. Checked out your Epoxy method, looks good. While inspecting as I was taking the pic I noticed it looked like it was leaking around the 0330137 seals. The outer seal is installed with the spring side out, is the correct.

Re: 1989 70 hp Bearing housing assy. w/pic

the springs in the seal is there to keep it firmly on the shaft go to da seal shop & they can fit a slightly smaller spring for you , witch ive done before , if i can remember there are 2 seals on the prop side just after the bearing i would put the springs side in facing the gearbox , put x2 new seals

Re: 1989 70 hp Bearing housing assy. w/pic

Thanx. that is what i figured, couldn't see putting the seal in spring out. Yes there are two. Now tell me about your epoxy method please.

Re: 1989 70 hp Bearing housing assy. w/pic

exactly where is the leak u need to upload a photo so i can see what you on about k from my understanding reading about it sounds like it leaking between the seal & housing correct me if i am wrong if that's the case u need to take the gearbox apart to fix it .if it leaking between the seal & shaft different story den put x2 new seals , before you do anything u need to find out whether they are the correct seals that are in there at the moment ,because some clown has probably put the wrong seals in , you will never know ,unless you have owned the motor all its life ,if not you have to take them out anyway cause its leaking k , then while they out make sure they are the correct ones & at the same time look for cracks etc , & examine the face of the housing where the seal fits .look for pitted marks caused by corrosion , tell me what you find then we cross the bridge from there k , cheers

The springs are back to back. Inner one goes with spring in (to keep oil in). Outer one goes with spring out ( to keep water out). Unless it's some certain Yamaha models.
