I recently purchased a cabin and it came with a old Mercury 7.5 Serial # 3460455. I can't figuire out how to remove the engine cover. The silver plate on front appears to move only a little but I don't want to break it by forcing it. How do you remove the cover ? It won't start so I want to change the spark plugs

If you look under the rear carry handle you'll see a lever on either side - pull it down... Cowling will lift off from the rear....
