I want to remove a 1979 120 OMC from my boat and I don't have a manual yet. I've removed the outdrive and the rubber boot so far. I want to be able to mount the engine on a stand so I want to know what to unbolt next. To me it looks like three seperate pieces bolted together. Do I pull out the whole works and seperate on floor or can I disconnect the engine from what I'm thinking is some sort of flywheel and just remove the engine and leave the other two housings in the boat?<br />As you might have guessed marine engines are new to me so my naming of parts leaves a lot to be desired.<br />Thanks
