"Hi Guys i am a newbee here
i own a mariner 60hp made in japan
i have a serial number as follows
675-30391 please advise on build daate
i all so have found that my engine was stuck in forward after doing all the correct checks i droped the lower unit and tested the gearing all goes well when i turn the gear spline forward 1/4 turn nuteral 1/4 turn reverse
after closer inspection i noticed the main drive gear shaft inside female spline had corroded out and was stripped on the inside on one side
so i am now hunting for a fix
what is your recomendations ,can i cut off this lower spline head and weld another one on or should i go to a wrecker and cross my fingers he has another one
or would i find a new one
i all so would like to find a service manual for this
once i know the year it will help i guess CLYMER will have one
also there is like a nylon plastic gear disc whith a strange tapered edge that sit over the male spline of the lower unit what is this for i cant work out what it does ?
oh i also found that the impeller was like a starfish and cracking so replaced that now i have my waterpump going again when idealing
YEAH
anyway thanks in advance you guys rock
