I made a complete copy of the site back in 2020 using HTTrack. Luckily, it looks like it is also on the Wayback Machine. There was just too much important information on Leeroy's site to not have a copy.
I just finished re-sealing a lower unit only to take it out on a first run to find that I should have inspected the shift dog a bit closer. In best practice, the exhaust housing gaskets should probably be replaced when removing again but; has anyone had experience in re-using them? It’s only 20$...
Does anyone know the proper way to change out the shaft seal part #58 in the diagram at marineengine.com
from what I can tell, I need to pull the needle bearing #59 to get to it and I will need to replace the needle bearing also as it will be destroyed.
Also, is it possible to add a 2nd shaft...
