    So it can come out either upwards or downwards?

    1957 Johnson Rd-19 35hp questions

    That makes plenty of sense. The only issue is, Idk how it is installed on this model, so I'll just try to explain it better. I have the power head off, and the entire gearcase off, so all that's left is the lower unit housing. The water tube comes up inside of the housing, and then for the last...

    I sprayed it with PB Blaster, so that should help if I can find out how to get it out.

    Soooo.... like I mentioned, someone broke the water tube. It broke right beneath the bushing/nut at the top of the lower unit. I looked in the manual, and I looked online, but I can't for the life of me find out how to get the remaining piece out. Can I hammer it out downwards, into the lower...

    Thanks for the tip! I will make sure to remove all of the pb blaster. It'd sure be nice if new hoses and fixing the tank fixed the running issue. Fingers crossed!

    I got the bearing fixed! I spent two hours with my finger in the hole exercising it. I used PB Blaster, and I finally got it to move a little bit, and then some more, and then once it was moving good I moved it back and forth until it was 100% smooth.

    Also, the roller bearing above the thrust bearing is stuck. It's not rusted, and it looks fine, so I don't know why. I'm trying to find out in the manual how to get it out.

    I found another problem. I was looking at the end of the water tube, which came out when I took the thing apart, and noticed it looks broken. So I looked in the manual, and it looks like it wasn't supposed to come out at all? From what I gather it is supposed to be held in by a gland nut. I...

    Thanks! I'd be sunk without their help. I tried researching, but it's so old there's not a lot on them other than in the manual. Now I think I'm almost done. I can't wait to get it on the water!

    I'll see if I can pick up a short shaft. Also I was thinking, maybe I can find someone who want to trade their short shaft parts for my long shaft ones.

    Dad picked up some water cooled two stroke oil yesterday. He got like a gallon, so we should be set for life.

    Also, this engine has the lower unit extension that dad would like off. What parts would I need to change out to do that?

    Sooo... I took the drain plug out... and out came a lot of stuff that looks, smells, and acts like water. So I took the the very lower part of the gear case of and all the gears apart and everything looks really great. No rust, scratching or scoring. I found the seal kit. I also checked the...
