Impeller pump

[onefishinfoole]

Hello everyone I'm Eric new to the site wanted some questions I have a 1990 Johnson outboard 115 do I half to take the pin out under the carbs to take off my lower end to replace impeller pump.

You need to remove a hitch pin on the bell crank that goes under the carburetors.----Requires a pair of pliers.----Then that lever ( bell crank ) is pushed to the port side and rotated to release the shift rod.----No other tools or hammer required to release the shift rod.

Hello sir thank you vary much for quick response at this point I'm only taking off the Carter pin the rod and push it to the port side or reverse which I have in now

It is a HITCH pin that is removed.-----Not a cotter pin.-----Bell crank is pushed to port side of motor.----Rotated either to forward or reverse direction to release the shift rod.----Do not turn the shift rod during this work.

I'm very sorry sir but this hitch pin is it on left or right side I see cotter pin that is connected to a rod then to shift cable

 

[racerone]

It is Item #17 part #0330941 on the STARBOARD side of the motor.----On that rod ( L-shaped ) lever under the bottom carburetor.----Observe and work carefully.

It looks like the bolt is facing the motor head and looks like the carbs will have to come off it's in the center of the motor head

 

[racerone]

Just STOP-----There is no bolt to take out.----Carburetors do not have to come off at all.------Find this hitch pin item #17 !!------I have done this simple procedure many times.

Find -----Crowley marine-----Find parts diagrams.-----Find hitch pin #17 , part #0330941

 

[Crosbyman]

find the upper part of the shift rod and disconnect this end from whatever is holding it place .(look around the bottom of the Ph. it is there) this will allow you to slide the GC down after all the bolts are out ! .

see 17 lynch pin that hold the shift rod tilt assembly. take it apart to free up #47 shift rod from parts 114 and 45

 

[racerone]

Remove #17.-----Push on and rotate #58,-----Part #45 moves to release the shift rod.
