Hello all,
I am having a slight issue with my older motor. Replaced the impeller and a seal on it recently, and cannot get the lower unit pivot pin to seat correctly, allowing me to put it into gear. I am wondering if there is a trick to this? If it will let me post the link here, the pin in question is # 17 on page #10 of this manual .http://www.fiberglassics.com/wiki/images/e/ea/Johnsonservice002.pdf . I dont know if there is a special trick, i.e. turn in 2x, stand on one foot, hop 2x,while holding my nose ,etc.... without disassembling the whole lower unit. i am stumped by this one and could really use help. FYI pin is in great shape. Thanks in advance for your help! Jay
