I removed my lowe unit to replace it. The sealing ring rubber sleeve and spacer were left behind. They didn't come out with the drive shaft. How do I remove them. 70Hp. Chrysler

Sealing ring rubber? Do you mean drive shaft seal?

Re: Sealing ring , rubber sleeve, and spacer

It is a rubber sleeve, a seal, and a spacer that fits on top of the drive shat at the spines. They didn,t slide out with the rest of the drive shaft. I talked to a guy at Seneca lake tody and he said to try using a dowel to try to get them out of the itermediate unit. It is difficult I can't get the sleeve through the hole. i was wondering if someone who has had this problem had some easy way to do it.any help is greatly appreciated.

Hooray!!! I got it out. I tried a rod, and variious other things to try to reach into that little hole way up inside there. What worked was the all purpose tool, the coat hanger. I am back in business.
