1. Please send engine model and year.
2. Send a picture or what it?s needed for.
3. I feel there is an alternative if the wrench is not found. JOW

Its a 1987 mariner 30hp,jap made. I get more responses on the force forum than the mariner! The prop shaft is held in with a spanner nut and Ive had to do one alternate before and that was drilling and breaking the nut out and replace it with a new and tap it in with 2 people with 2 punches symotaniously

Thats exactly what my book shows! Yup very hard to find, I found a thread on a different sight where a guy used a 3 inch conduit and a jig saw and cut out teeth and made that work, im not to sure that would work on mine, I have looked everywhere for a wrench that would work but no luck and my bent prop shaft is eating my bearing and new gear up!!

It is originally a Yamaha tool.

Re: Cant find this tool anywhere need some help

Your absolutly correct, yamaha built this motor in japan before buying the patent or so I was told... Now the tough part is finding a place or someone that has it so I can either borrow or buy. Probably buy if its not too expensive so I shall have it future refrence for when this happens again, I know itll happen again due to the river I go up... Once hunting season is over, tunnel hull project here I go, thats the best part of fiberglass!!
