Re: Help with 1974 Johnson 25 hp
No easy way to pull it out John if you don't have the puller and installer. I made a puller out of a 1/4" nut by grinding it down round so it would fit in the bushing hole from the bottom. A piece of all-thread made the puller rod. The installation tool was made from a piece of bar stock turned down on one end to fit the hole in the bushing. This holds the bushing, oring and washer for installation.<br /><br />The whole process takes maybe 15 minutes including cleaning if you have the right tools. If you have it apart, I would consider taking it to a wrench. Would probably save you time and new words in the vocabulary.
