Last year I noticed that the lower unit was leaking on my (new to me) 75 HP outboard. I pulled the lower unit & brought it back with me to re-seal it, and am now getting it ready for the season. Everything has gone more or less okay, but I am stuck on the water pump seal (#11 in the diagram here: http://i.imgur.com/NwOwhe8.png ). The factory service manual simply says "drive it out from the inside of the pump" - but there doesn't seem to be any way to do so. The seal bore it sits in has a step preventing access to the bottom of the seal, and trying to hit the upper 'lip' of the seal from the inside has only resulted in mangling it.
Has anybody had this problem & has a good solution to share?
