Yamaha outboard (15) lower unit

I have a 1992 (I think) 15 horse Yamaha tiller handle outboard (model 15ESHQ). Runs great, or did a year or so ago when I last ran it. The lower unit has a leak and water was getting in the oil.
I'm looking for a kit that includes all the seals and other parts. Anyone have a good online source for parts?

I don't have the answer, but I had a Gamefisher small tiller outboard for 20 years and the foot oil was always milky when I changed it annually, but no metallics on the magnet nut and never caused it any apparent problems (it had plenty of other problems, all ethanol related in hindsight). How much water intrusion are we talking about?

They might have a kit.
Don't do what I did. I got drunk and took my lower unit apart right after I ordered the parts. By the time the seals arrived 4 or 5 days later I'd forgotten how everything went together. Thankfully there were a few youtube vids to help me out. I think I'd rather buy a new motor than rebuild another lower.

Go by O'Rilley's and see if Sierra has a seal kit for that engine

Check out simyamaha .com. I emailed them what I needed and my motor model and serial number and they emailed me links to exactly what I needed. Pricing was good also.

I’ve never seen a kit, I always bought the parts needed thru a parts house like linked above. You can also go to a Yamaha dealer and get or order the parts. Will tell you this, many times the carriers are frozen in the case and take pullers and sometimes heat to get apart.
