OK, I have searched and read for hours. Most say to pull the core cable first, then magically unscrew from the outdrive side and pull out the outer cable shield. This is where it gets dicey for me. I have it all apart up at the engine side. I did start to pull the core and it stuck at around 15 inches out. I did get it back in but assume if I give it heck I will have it out. But then the next part I don?t understand. It says unbolt at outdrive and pull the sheath out. Well as you see in the pic attached on the engine side of the sheath more stuff for adjusting, etc. that I can?t imagine can go through. Or is this cable ***. a 2 piece of some sort? On top of all this I can?t even see let alone reach where my cable goes after it curves down at back of boat. I cannot imagine how I will get it fed back up and via the same route when I can?t even see it let alone reach it. Anyhow, maybe words of expertise will coach me to press on.
