Carb removal help

[jal]

I have a '98 Johnson j90tslec. What is the best (easiest) way to remove the throttle and shift cables from the air silencer base. Can I remove the cable retainer and pop the trunnions out of their anchor pockets or should I remove the cables from their pins and then move base and cables

both. i remove the retainer, and pop out the trunions, then remove the cotter pins, slide the cable off.

TD, I do not have any cotter pins on the cables. I do have lock nuts and what looks like drift pins. Should I remove the lock nuts or take out the pins? Hope the picture come up

Remove the lock nuts and pull the cables off...easy.

Carburetor linkage removal. Does one just pull that linkage from the cam to get it off. I don't see those retainers in the carb kit and Murphy and I are very old enemies.
The air silencer base came off very without a hitch, Thank You.
