I saw a free 1978 evinrude 70hp on cl today
so i went to get it
does the 1978 share any parts with my 1983 evinrude 70hp?
then the guy also gave me a power tilt
but i can't find much info about it
can anyone tell me about this power tilt and how to see if it works?
That trim system came off of an early 78 motor or earlier. It will not fit on your 1983 70 hp the rest of the 78 motor will interchange with your 1983 model. It may not even fit the 78 model depending on which transom brackets it has. 1978 was the year they changed the the T/N/T system to the 3 ram which is what your 83 model needs.
That is an obsolete system parts are hard to find and are expensive. My 2 cents is find a 3 ram system from 1980 to the early 90s motors and put that on.
Remember its tilt only and will not raise motor under power...1200 rpm and below it will raise it but anything over that it will bypass and return to full down.
Yea unfortunatlly but its better than what i had
(Manual tilt) and the price was right...free!!
How do i wire this up? Its s 3 wire
What do i need for relays and a switch
