    9.5 hp

    I don't know if I'm missing a piece or not. When my motor is in the locked down position for running, I have to reach down under the mounting bracket and try to pull the arm down to release it in order to raise the motor.

    Lower unit bolt-up

    9.5 hp Evinrude

    1972 9.5 hp Evinrude

    Several questions - <br />I had this motor shipped to me with the lower unit removed. While trying to put the lower unit back on, it went a certain distance into the motor and wouldn't go any further. I took it back off and noticed the water line was loose. What should the first step for me...
