I would like to remove the lower end on a 1993 25 HP, Mariner, tiller. Need to replace water pump. Have removed the 4 bolts, but cannot locate the release for the shifting rod.

It's a pin and flange with a small bolt holding it under the carb

I don't take them off, you can get to the bolt from the port side--Bob

I can see a flange with a swing lock on it, looks like would swing up and pull out. But the starter is in the way. Remove the Starter??

Re: Remove lower end

Once I got the lower end off and the water pump I noticed the output shaft on the lower end is bent. Can a shade tree guy, tear one of these apart??
