I have a 90 4 stroke..I'm hooked on salmon fishing and I have a jet that I've never used..im hoping somebody has a diagram of all parts needed to swap the prop to the jet..its a San leandro pump...or maybe somebody has a video of swapping prop to jet?

Thanks in advance!

Take the prop lower off, put the jet lower on. Run the shift cable to the reversing diverter. The jet intake needs to be 1/2" or so above the bottom of the hull with the bottom of the intake parallel with the bottom of the hull. Forget the trim is there.

The guys over at outboard jets will be able to answer any and all questions about your pump. They are the ones who make them.
