I've got a 1978 model 115 Johnson, Two cylinders went down on me due to bad fuel. I've got the powerhead off, and on a bench. Pulled the electronics off and the stator and flywheel. Trying to seperate the crank case so that I can pull the bad pistons out and hone the cylinders. I can't seem to get it to come apart, What more needs to come loose for the block to seperate? If anyone can point me in the way of a manual or just some good advice I would appreciate it. As it sits now, it has the intake, and heads removed. All I'm needing to do is seperate the crankcase.

I'd really like a guide or a book on this motor, but I'm not looking to spend $100 on one.
