Re: 1985 merc help plz

It's in the lower unit. You need to drop the lower unit. Its driven by the drive shaft. Don't get your undies in a bunch, but if you had to ask where it is, you should probably purchase a service manual when you by the pump/impeller. Your local library may have one you can check out if you don't want to buy one.
