Volvo Bellows Question

[EagleLaker]

I have a Volvo Penta Cobra SX (1998) and have just recognized a large rip in the bottom bellows when the lower unit is in the up position. I need to replace it but can only get one end off. Is this a do it yourself job? The other end goes into the outdrive, looks like I would have to take it off. Is this true? Lastly, I assume this is the exhaust bellows. Could I have harmed something by driving in the lake last weekend?<br /><br />Much Thanks..

if its the exhaust bellows I would not sweat it. they have slots in then to drain the water. it is designed to have water in it. repair it at your leisure.<br /> good luck and keep posting

Yes your drive has to come off to replace it and I would get it fixed ASAP but it wouldn't prevent me from going out this weekend
