I bought a used boat with this motor on it. Serial 1808954. The power head was completely rebuilt. the low end was replaced all by the previous owner.
The only thing that had not been replaced was the impeller. So removed low end and replaced impeller. As I was beginning to reintall, the low end fell over and the reverse cams fell out. Also I cant seem to line up splines correctly to get shifter working properly. I have read every lowend reinstall on this forum. But I still am missing something. I am able to get it into nuetral on low end by turning spline with 11/32 socket. But cant seem to find neutral on upper motor.
Could some please help? Im 4 days into this and still no shifting, LOL.

I own a 1965 Mercury 35hp. I need to replace the impeller also, but i have had no luck removing the lower unit. I remove all of the bolts keeping it in place and got it to drop about 3/4 of an inch. It will not budge any further and im unsure how to do it. Thank You
