Hi again. OK so I'm going to replace the water pump. Simple.
I have removed all the relevant bolts, bar one to hold everything in place
I flip her into Reverse and remove the clevis pin on the rod that secures the shift rod. After lots of google searches it appears all I need to do is push the rod the clevis pin was in to port and the shift rod should disengage and the lower unit can be separated from the motor.
I push rod to port, not a lot of movement but its as far as it will go, Iremove the last bolt and try to get the lower unit off. It'll drop about 25mm but that's it. Without putting too much pressure on it, it refuses to budge.
I've read my service manual and google it but I'm stumped.
Any suggestions please.
Cheers
Tony
