    Change remote control engine stop button to tiller quickstop?

    Hi! I have a 2 stroke 30 hp Evinrude built in 1989. Up to now it was remote controlled. The engine was stopped, using a push-button (picture 1). I now want to have it with tiller control. I attached the tiller (picture 2) and the accelator cable works fine (one cable combines the accelator...

    Evinrude 30 hp gear / lower unit removal, what am I doing wrong?

    Sorry, but I cannot follow you! Item #29? According to the drawing this is somewhere located on the drive shaft / gear shaft. So not on the propeller shaft inside the gearcase, but the shaft which goes into the lower unit from above? I gave letters to the items in the picture: Would be great...

    Evinrude 30 hp gear / lower unit removal, what am I doing wrong?

    Thanks for your prompt answer, but then I have to ask: I am not sure, is this still inside the lower unit or did I already remove it? As far as I can see, it is still in? How does one remove it? Here is the picture with all the items I have removed (the ring below the prop shaft fell out after...

    Sorry, I think the two pictures with the year branding are not displayed properly and I cannot edit anymore for some reasons, so here they are again:

    Evinrude 30 hp gear / lower unit removal, what am I doing wrong?

    @racerone Thanks for the hint! That is item 19 here in the exploration drawing, right? Another minor question: After removing all parts inside the lower unit I can see a branding inside the lower unit. See picture: So this does tell me that this lower unit was manufactured in 1985...

    Evinrude 30 hp gear / lower unit removal, what am I doing wrong?

    I was able to remove the snap ring. I also removed the retainer plate behind it, the gear reverse and the shifter yoke. Picture 1 shows these items I have succesfully removed. However, now I am stuck. I cannot remove the propeller shaft, because the shift lever is attached to it. Picture 2,3...

    Evinrude 30 hp gear / lower unit removal, what am I doing wrong?

    Thanks for the clarification! I really wanted to avoid using the way to heat it. I now tried to use an improvised setting and hammering on it. I am very happy, since I managed to get the bearing carrier out! I was worried that the hole thing is just stucked in due to all the corrosion..... The...

    Evinrude 30 hp gear / lower unit removal, what am I doing wrong?

    I am doing this job, because I accidently removed the Philips screw and it is not possible to put it back in (I really tried it, as I wanted to avoid having to remove the propeller and having to set up the gear). My problem turns out is the following: Usually you can put in a throat into these...

    Evinrude 30 hp gear / lower unit removal, what am I doing wrong?

    Hi! I have an Evinrude 30 hp build in 1987. I have to remove the lower unit and disassemble the whole lower unit. I removed everything like Philips screw and tilt shift/rod and then I startet to remove the propeller. This worked. Then I removed the two screws inside the lower unit, see...

    Gearcase small ring / seal broke, how is this called and where to get it?

    Thanks, so I have to change the impeller fingers. What about the impeller itself? Is this correct or do I have to switch it upside down? So on one side it is open where the key can be put in and on the other side it is closed. Currently as the picture shows it lies such that the opening for the...

    Philips screw from lower outboard part removed, what now?

    Thanks for your comments. I tried to turn the driveshaft while trying to get a gear in. Furthermore I partially reassembled the lower unit to the upper unit and connected the gear shaft. However it does not work. When lower and upper part are combined and I try to switch gear it does not work...

    Philips screw from lower outboard part removed, what now?

    First of all thanks to all of you for your help! Especially thanks to racerone, fdrgator, timguy and bobbyc. I used a small screwdriver in order to align the hole and then I was able to get the philips screw back into. First I put the shift rod in and then with the screwdriver and gravity and a...

    Philips screw from lower outboard part removed, what now?

    Thanks for your fast answer. In this picture: the pivot pin is in. It is not possible to get it more into even further. So the pivot pin is in the hole in the lower unit? If not: How should it be possible to get it into the hole of the shifter fork? How can I change the position of the hole...

    Philips screw from lower outboard part removed, what now?

    Update: Unfortunately I was not able to get the screw back into? So it was stuck / fixed and not possible to shift anymore. Then I removed the screw. I was not able to put it back into. I can now move the shaft marked with the green arrow in the picture before (pivot pin). Now it is even...

    Philips screw from lower outboard part removed, what now?

    I tried to pull / push the thing which is marked with a green arrow in the picture. It did work for a time (after I inserted the screw I think), but now it does not work anymore, it is stuck/fixed?
