Ok the boat is an 1984 champion fish/ski "bass" boat with a 84 mercury 150 black max v6 on it. 18'6" long Ptt quit working on me the other day. It will still go down but when I try to trim it up it clicks once and that's it. (Didn't know how I was going to load it) the trim motor is in the boat. No numbers on the pump itself. We tapped on the relays with no luck the the motor and got it to work again. Instead of risking having to manually trim it down in the lake I am going to fix it but none of the shops want to order just parts they want the labor money. How do I go about finding a new trim motor? Also where can I order some marine tex at? I need about 1 qt of it

Change the fluid first and see if that helps. Mine was acting similar one time and I changed the fluid and it started working again and didn't have anymore problems with it.

There are many places on the web where you can find and buy parts...
Start searching through places like here on iboats.com, e-bay, craigslists, mercury marine parts, etc...
Use a test light and make sure all your connections are solid before you condemn any parts...
Marine-Tex is also available here on iboats.com [ http://www.iboats.com/Boat-Paint-Re...d.047664614--session_id.528625074--view_id.11 ], along with other types of quality marine fillers...
