Hi All

Well, my transom is rotted and needs to be replaced. Good times ahead.

First step is to pull the engine.

Any links to images / videos for OMC guidance on pulling a 5.0 motor? I see stuff on Mercruser but have not found OMC yet.

Thanks
Chris

Probably not much different. Disconnect only what needs to be disconnected, pull the drive and fly the engine out.

Disconnect:
Battery(s)
Fuel Line(s)
Electrical wiring from boat to engine components
Exhaust
Water line from outdrive
Top motor mount nuts
Outdrive/shifter cable connection

Not much more when I did mine.
