Hi,

I have been having a problem with the "clutch type" tilt on my 1978 Glastron
with an OMC 800 motor.
The motor is eaither hard to raise or the falls to the ground like a ton of
bricks. I have had the clutch
assy apart at least 100 times or more. Cleaned it put it back together and
put it back in. Works for a while
and then it stiffens up to the point that the tilt motor will not raise it
again. Yes the tilt motor is brand new
for the second time. Another $200!!!. The next time I put the assy back
together there isn't enough friction
between the plates for the motor to lift. Same amount of spacers, plates
etc.. I have probably spent more
time in the driveway working on this then using it. My question is has
anyone seen a retro fit tilt assy so that
the old tilt system can be replaced?? Any help would be appreciated.
