You need a 5/8" combination wrench.------------Now look for a bolt with a 5/8" hex on it.---------There is only one and it is to the starboard side near the back of the lower carburetor.------------Loosen that bolt till you can spread the 2 arms to release the shift rod.

And don't lose that little nylon bushing that's in the arm on the shift rod end. It's NLA.

If ALL the bolts are out the drive shaft splines could be stuck in the crank shaft splines. Give the lower unit a couple of wacks with a big rubber mallet. Is the bolt under the trim tab out ??
