Hey guys, this has been my first time tearing down my outboard as far as i have right now, it was/is running perfectly fine, only reason for doing it is bebecause the cast alluminum arms that attach from the cylinder block cover to the starter broke off and im attempting to remove it in order to have it welded so i can continue to use the electric start instead of the emergency pull rope method..
Anyhow, i have the service book for my engine and have already removed the flywheel and all the wiring and stuff on top and have removed the 4 screws from the drive shaft hosting and the 6 nuts that were behind that housing cover which appear to be what holds the powerhead to the drive shaft..
And Now I'm stuck.. The manual says to pull the powerhead up and off at this point but it wont seem to budge and i really dont want to hammer at it and risk damaging something.. Any help would be appreciated, ive taken 100's of pictures and can upload some in 10 hrs or so when i get back home if needed.. Thanks in advance for any help i can get..
