I would like to attempt changing this tilt motor. I have a manual and average mechanical skills. I'm just not sure of the level of difficulty. Is this a big deal? How many hours would a professional mechanic charge? Are there any pitfalls to look out for that will avoid a major costly mistake? Thank you for your advice.

No biggie...just getting to the rear bolt/s. I can't remember but I "think" you can get to the back one/s without pulling the motor off the boat. Just catch the little bit of fluid that will leak out and make sure to line the pump key back up...<br /><br />Hope this helps

If you have ran this motor in saltwater (which you probally have) Be very careful when pulling the bolts out they have a real bad tedency to corrode inside the hole therefor when you crank on the the heads pop right off. If you have a light heat sourch this would be good to consider.
