1989 115 Mercury outboard. Trim unit on port side leaking from top O-ring. Can you replace the O-ring without removing the whole unit. The boat is on a floating dock.

three different systems were used on 1989 115HP elpto. Replacing a trim while boat is on a floating dock? Sounds like a bad idea to me. I like my fingers and want to keep them.

I was wondering if I could just remove the cap of the cylinder to get at the o ring.
