How many bolts

[carogator]

'89 Evinrude 25 . After all exterior parts and accessories are removed, just how many bolts need to be removed to actually separate the powerhead from the midsection?
Thanks.

Thanks for the info. You just could not tell from a picture of the gasket.
After I got all the accessories out of the way, the nuts were easy to see,
I have the powerhead off. I found that by putting a box wrench on the bolts and a hammer on the bolt
head while applying 10 lbs. torque, the bolts came right loose.

Now to remove the three broken bolts.
