hello its me again with another quick? my 12v motor on my trim/tilt pump went out the brushes are completly gone and a wire is broke or ripped. my question i have is can i buy any new pump or does it have to be one that puts out the exact psi mine does which is around 4500 psi..i could b wrong on that and it might be 450 psi but here is a picture of one which is the same one i have


forgot to mention its used on a 1972 mercury ob 1150...yea i know the pump is overkill for this engine but it came with the boat

I am confused by your posting. You need to replace the PTT pump motor with an exact replacement. If you can get a used PTT pump and resevoir, of the same type you already have, you can use that. The inline 4 and 6 cylinder Mercs for most of the 70s used a pump/resevoir like in your picture.

You should be able to get brushes from merc or Crowleymarine web site. Aftermarket replacement motors and resevoir assembly may be avail. It would help if I knew what you were looking for.

Check and see if ARCO makes an aftermarket Motor and resevoir. They used to.

The brushes failed on mine last year and a dealer had the end cap with brushes attached (old cap here for example)PT-motor.jpg but you have to use silver solder to attach,the cap also has a thermal cutout in it.
