Removing oil pump drive on a 1992 mariner 150 V6

[BTL]

Serial # OD177534

Hey guys. I decided to take the oil injection system out of my engine and bought the pump block off kit. But now I can't figure out how I'm supposed to get the drive coupler out of the powerhead so I can install the plug. It doesn't turn and there isn't much to grab ahold of. Can somebody tell me how I get this out? I'm sure it's something simple I'm missing. Thanks.

What happens when you turn the flywheel ?

 

[BTL]

The pump drive doesn't move. I assume the gear that is supposed to turn it is stripped.

What happens when you turn that shaft with a screwdiver ?

 

[BTL]

It doesn't turn.

 

[racerone]

It won't turn in either direction ??

 

[BTL]

Nope

 

[BTL]

Is it supposed to unscrew?

That is a plastic bushing for the rotation magnet and should just pull out. If its stuck just install a screw in slot and grab it and pull it out. Then you have access to oil drive.

Thanks, I'll try that.
