Yamaha 85hp parts question

[ctrent]

I need to buy parts for a C85TLRR - ser# 418534.
I need to rebuild the trim/tilt unit.
What will I need other than a wrench to remove cylinder caps, seals and fluid?

I had my local yamaha service department repair one of the cylinders but it started leaking within 3 months. I would rather not go down that road again.

Thanks,
Chas

I only have one cylinder that is leaking. Can I just replace the seals and gaskets for that one cylinder? According to your diagram at
http://www.boats.net/yamaha/partsyst...mponent=354620
the parts that I need are 4-9. Is that correct? I don't see part #4. Are there other parts (seals or gaskets) that I should replace?
Can you give me a price on the wrench to remove the cap, the fluid, and the parts that I need?

Thanks,
Chas

It's the left cylinder (looking from the back of the motor) that's leaking.

[boats.net]

#4 part number is 6H1-43861-10-00.
If you needing seal for top cap order 93210-18322-00 and 6H1-43812-00-00.
The tilt cylinder cap wrench is YB-06175-2B.

Trim cap removal tool

Why they make this so difficult is hard to understand. Yamaha won't sell the tool direct, it has to be from a dealer and the cost is about $130 and my local Yamaha service place (who won't rent it out) say that you are likely to break the tool anyway because it will take a hammer and punch to loosen the bolt cap.

Then there is an Armstong Face Spanner wrench sold by Sears, for the 1 1/4 inch size required. Cost 13.99 plus shipping.

I'll advise if it works when I get it.
