1955 johnson impeller install

[hdman97]

Hi guys,
I' m installing an impeller in this motor. A 1955 5 1/2 Johnson seahorse (cd12).
Anyone know the order of the spacer,spring, o ring,washer that goes on
the driveshaft where it connects to the power head.
They fell off while working on it,and I don't know the order they were in. :redface:

Thanks.........

Cup washer, spring, carbon seal/o-ring assembly (flat side up, cupped side down over spring), washer (side with ridge up), cork gasket (preferably new). Grease the splines, too...

Replace the cork washer (top gasket) and the o-ring while it's apart.
