I decided to change the seals, and impeller in my lower unit this weekend. All was going fine except when I tried to pull the seal out of the carrier I damaged the bearing. Was not nice to see needle bearing falling out on my bench. Now the fun part. I could not budge this with a socket...
My 7.5 gamefisher will not stay in gear if I put any kind of load on it. If I hold the 2-speed lever forward it will work. I read somewhere the clutch has some kind of spring mechanism. This is a 1980 Gamefisher 7.5

Any ideas?
I acquired this motor for a ridiculous price. Need a service manual. I am quite sure the impeller needs replacement. Put it in water and got it started. Nothing seems to come out of the exhaust holes. I would think it should spit some h2O. Any advice changing impleller would be good...
