First I would like to say this is a great site and thanks to all the knowledgeable Techs that reply to the questions on here. Most mechanics won't give answers or advice for free. I have a friend that is a tech (not in this line of work anymore, only does it on the sideline) but I can tell when a shadetree mechanic like me ask him about something he's reluctant to tell. Once again thanks to you guys that share info.
I have a 1990 130 Yamaha ETLD with 20" shaft. The motor has been used in saltwater all it's life. I developed a crack on the lower unit gearcase housing due to corrosion in the threads of the prop shaft gear nut. Sooner or later it's gonna spit everthing out the back and would hate to be on the water.
I think 115 HP and 130 HP lower units are interchangable??? And if so what years/model 115 or 130 will fit my 1990 model.
Thanks for the help.
