Review on ๐Ÿ”ง Affordable Tilt/Trim Motor Replacement for Mercury Models 1996-up: DISCOUNT STARTER & ALTERNATOR by Byron Howell

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Overseas scrap lasted less than two years. Don't buy if you don't want to replace the motor every two years.

I bought this mercury coated motor on 11th August 2011 and it has lasted less than 2 years. It's rusted to the point where water gets in and won't work unless you hit it with a hammer. The original trim motor lasted 13 years. I called to see if they would do anything and the answer was no. I asked to give the manufacturer the number and they said that this is a foreign company but after asking twice they didn't give me the number.

Pros
  • Excellent design
Cons
  • Definitely bad product
