Could someone direct me to a video for replacing the out drive water pump. Out drive ser.# OB661469.
The boat was only used on fresh water and the water pump was never changed!

Thank you.

Be careful when re-assembling. If you bump the shift shaft and re-assemble, you will lose either the forward or reverse direction. Be extremely careful not to move that shaft. You find out the hard way after unloading your boat at the ramp. Put ear muffs on the outdrive after re-assembling and check the gear shifter.
 
Thank you for the response, I turned the shift shaft clockwise to make sure it is still in forward gear. Will that suffice? Boat is still in storage.
