I have a 2011 ETEC E200HVLIIA motor that started shaking while underway when I hit some waves. What I found was the 2 bolts that hold the steering arm onto the motor were loose and I couldn't get them to tighten, they appear to be stripped, is this a common thing with this motor and how can I repair?
Thanks in advance for your thought and suggestions,
Dave

Please explain a little more what you are calling the “steering leg”. Maybe a different body part like “arm”. Nobody has used this term in my experiences before.
Pictures would be helpful.

The steering arm is the whole pivot shaft. Are you talking about the bolts on the end of the steering ram? You have to hold one to turn the other. The bushings also wear out in the end of the ram brackets

I corrected my post, yes it is the steering arm that connects to the motor powerhead, not the ram that moves this. I just discovered that the bolts are actually broken. When I tried to remove them they only measure about 2 inches long, both sides are broken. Any ideas on how to remove the rest of the bolts?
Are you referencing item 39?
Yes, item 39 is correct there are 2 of them and both are broken.Originally Posted by Bighare2
Is it possible to maybe mix up some epoxy on the broken bolt, screw it in and let it cure overnight, and then see if I can back out the broken bolts? any ideas would be helpful.
Thanks,
Dave
Easy out or reverse drill bits

Those two bolts thread into the upper motor mount. So the repair job is not easy or quick. You may need to remove the powerhead to provide access to the motor mount. If you are going to do the work get yourself a service manual.
Do you know how long these bolts are?
I was going to try the left hand drill method mentioned and see if I can get an easy-out to get the broken bolts out. Do the new bolts screw through the motor mounts into the block? Or is there a nut somewhere on the back?
Thanks.,
Dave
Would probably be easier to pull the power head and replace the upper motor mount and the bolts. That's been my experience.
If I can get the bolts to come out do I still need to pull the powerhead or can I just put in new bolts?
If you can get them out then no. Good luck to ya.
Do you know the part # for the upper motor mount and approximate cost?
0984468 $332.49 from Crowley Marine and $314.99 Boats.net.
ChampioNman,
When I looked for this part I am getting some conflicting info, is this part 432017 another option for a 2011 200HO motor E200HVLIIA. ?
432017 is for the 25 and 30" shaft motors.
You're the best !!!
Regardless of where you buy, check the part numbers here. http://epc.brp.com/Index.aspx?lang=E...0-40c1000d40d8
FYI, I know you've got blue blood like I do, the online parts houses use BRP's EPC as well as the other manufacturer's EPCs.
Cool didn’t it know that. I was presuming the OP did not use the epc from the question asked why the different motor mount part numbers since the epc does indicate that difference.
