I have an 1976 Evinrude 115799s. Need a tilt/trim motor for this engine, having no luck. Anyone know of a vender that might have one to fit this engine.
Thanks

Your location ?----There might be 2 different motors used on those.-----Pictures ?----What is wrong with the motor ?----That motor is often submerged in water.-----Not hard to relocate that inside the boat.

I'm in South Jersey. I can get a pic, will upload when I get it. I think the motor is bad because the solenoid just clicks.

Some of those use a thermal overload device and contacts might need cleaning.---Or if moisture got in the motor the upper bushing on armature might be stuck.----Nothing to lose, so take top cover of the motor.
