60 evivrude changing water pump

[magnum28139]

hi , I own a 1993 60 hp evinrude that I would like to change the water pump on. Does it take a rocket scientist to do it? I was'nt to conserned about the job until I received a "Clymer shop manual",the break down show's all the bearing's, seal's and gasget's involved, causing me to wonder just how diffilcult the job might be. I guess my my question is can the average person handle this job? thank's for any help -magnum-

Its a sad fact, but I'll bet most rocket scientists couldn't change a water pump!!<br /><br />Its not too involved.<br />>disconnect shift linkage<br />>drop the gear box<br />>remove waterpump housing<br /><br />Follow the manual....

thanks schematic,sometimes i'm a little to cautious jumping into things about my boat, i did'nt think that it would be to bad,it was just that the manual makes it look pretty complicated.so thanks again and i hope the fish bite your next trip out--magnum--
