All,
I have a 1998 200 Johnson which I’m re-sealing the lower Unit, I made the mistake of trying to replace the two o-rings that go in the rod/shifter cover plate... everything went fine until I tried to insert the second ring there is no way I can get that done... as I could not get the second one in and tired of trying I checked if there is actually any room in there and although the books says it takes two ring it doesn’t seem to be any room there, and I’m starting to think there was not a second one in there when I took it apart... any help will be much appreciated...
