I need info on a replacement lower unit for my 1988 Mercury 90hp 3-Cyl ELPTO outboard.... serial #B374250...
I know there has to be other model year engines in different horsepowers that have a compatible lower unit that I could use..... Can anyone tell me what's compatible for a swap.... or point me to a good website/information that I could use as a reference.
Boat is 25 miles away, so I don't know exact shaft length, but my guess is either 20" or 25".
I also need some info on how to properly take the lower unit off the motor.... Does anyone have a link to a website with good instructions and/or a YouTube movie that demonstates how to do this.
Any information or advice would be greatly appreciated. I am fairly mechanical with car engines, but no expert by any means. I know only the very basics when it comes to outboards.
Thanks in advance.
