    Drill start 18602

    Remove the spark plug, insert a small screwdriver into the hole and make contact with the top of the piston, rotate the flywheel clockwise and let it push the screw driver outward until it reaches the highest it will go, that is static TDC.

    Lower onit installation

    Yes, to remove one of the pins just a little heat or vice grips or both and it will come out, it's a very light tap fit.

    Water pump problems

    Try putting it in the water at the ramp making sure that the gearcase is fully submerged at least 5" above the gearcase joint. See if it pees. I've seen Yamahas that get finicky with flush attachments and not pump water correctly. My 115 SHO needs to have the flush attachment "just right" for it...

    Getting off the lower unit of an Johnson Sailmaster 6hp from 1986

    Sheared bolt in lower unit - no access

    Sheared bolt in lower unit - no access

    Sheared bolt in lower unit - no access

    There is salt packed between the bolt and the housing. You will need to heat the housing around the bolt to expand the aluminum to release the salt grip. Use propane or MAPP gas torch to get the job done. Heat in circles around the stuck bolt. Do not directly heat the bolt stub. The goal is to...

    Oil injection tank
