I have a DT9.9 two stroke Suzuki. The impeller has stopped working, so I am now trying to replace it by first separating the bottom section to access the impeller area. I have removed the four bolts, but it will not come apart. I even made three little wedges out of tool steel on my mill, to try to pry the two castings apart! They will only separate about .040". It simply will not come apart! I am thinking the motor drive shaft spline is stuck to the lower end input shaft (as in, rusted together from years of sitting in salt water.)
I have never had this apart, have not seen a drawing and do not know what is involved (I am concerned about my little wedges damaging something.) Any advice, or a drawing would be greatl appreciated.
