Re: Lower Unit Removal Question
Finally got it!!! With the help of a mechanic. Heated and pryed and banged it with a hammer for a good 2 hours. The 5th bolt, the one just in front of the trim tab,was packed with salt and corrossion preventing it from dropping. Have to repair some threads and such but I don't see how that could have been avoided.I changed the pump and will attempt to install soon. I appreciate all the helpful input. Hopefully I will not have a new topic of lower unit install question.
