I pulled the 6 bolts retaining the lower unit, it dropped about 2 inches. On my mercury I had to seperate a shifting shaft, what do I need to do with this one?

You also need to separate the shift shaft...but I do not know where your connection is located. Perhaps behind the intake screens in the LU, or up near the shift handle by the powerhead???

What year is your motor?

Motor is a 75.
Same deal: look in the space for the coupler remove the upper screw.
You should be working with a manual."he who works without a service manual has a fool for a mechanic".You may find a manual at the library.

Thank you very much for the diagram, that's exactly what I needed. I bought the boat 2 years ago, previous owner sold it with questionable motor, but after spending about two hours lobor it runs great.
