I have a 1990 4.3L Mercruiser Alpha 1 Sterndrive serial # is 00405065 (184 R ) & 0D357324.
I'm getting ready to start this bellows project.I've removed the propeller.Now getting ready to remove the complete lower unit.I was told to place the throutle lever in full throutle position.In order for the drive shaft to pull out.Is this correct?Or is the drive shaft pinned?Reason why I ask is because,I hear the older sterndrives were pinned.I hate to start pulling the lower unit & drive shaft then,find pinned is why I'm asking?
Thanks!
