Hello,
I have a 1984 35 hp Mercury that I am trying to replace the impeller in. I see all the bolts to remove the lower unit but I do not see a way to disconnect the shift rod for removal. Where is this done at? most outboards I have worked on in the past had a bolt that would disconnect the lower part of the shift shaft to allow the lower unit to be pulled out. I have a Seloc manual that covers so many motors it has not really been much help and searching didnt turn up a whole lot.
This is the first Mercury I have really worked on... its been all OMC and Yamaha in the past.... anything special I should know going in?
Thanks for all the help!
