bearing between leg and engine

[the-voos]

I have a omc 3.0 liter engine with a omc cobra leg. The bearing between the leg and the engine which the drive shaft goes through is toast. I would like to know how to take this bearing out to replace and where I could find a manual for this. The serial no. of the leg is t0552556 and the serial no. from the engine ist1034165 thanks for the help

The bearing you are talking about is the coupler. Best to try and find one on e-bay for the best price. Check on this site to get a manual.<br /><br />Bob

I may have the dealer factory service manual for your engine. Closed the dealership and still have many parts, props and service literature for sale.<br />I will need the model number from your engine. Email: linda@nu-z.net
