So as if i did not have enough projects already, i found a pretty good deal on a 1989 125hp force. I decided to buy it for $250 to use as a parts motor/practice tear down motor so that i can understand how my current 1988 125hp (which i run on my boat) works. Now, my though is that i can restore it to have as a back up engine. I have the lower unit off, removed the water pump, and have just removed the gear housing cover. There was a buildup of sand and some corrosion in the driveshaft seal, and i am afraid that some may have gotten in the driveshaft bearing when i removed the gear housing cover. Is there any way to remove the driveshaft bearing without having to remove the entire driveshaft?
