I am having trouble removing the Lower unit on my 1964 28 hp Evinrude. I removed all the lower bolts, and the lower unit dropped down about an inch. After doing some searching in this forum, I read about the shift linkage access window and removing one of the bolts on the shaft in the window. My question is.. Do I completly remove one of the bolts on the brass thing on the shaft in order for the lower unit to drop down? or can I just loosen it? I am assumming it would be the lower bolt. I am worried about replacing the bolt if I take it all the way out. Because of the angle, the only way I can loosen it now is with an open / box end wrench. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
Paul
