Hello,
I was replacing the water pump on my Johnson qd-18. I removed the shift linkage connector through the cover on the mid housing and unbolted the lower unit. When it slid off the drive shaft stayed in place. Ive read that with some motors you have to remove the power head to remove the drive shaft on some outboards, but I havent seen anything on this specific one. I would like to know for sure before I start prying and pulling on the drive shaft. :lol:
