    Driveshaft O-ring keeping me from installing lower unit?

    I've done all the work on my lower unit(insert joke here). I'm trying to bolt it back up. The water tube has hit it's mark, and the driveshaft has engaged the powerhead. Shift rod is in line as well. I can rotate the motor and see the prop shaft turn. I have about 3/8" to go before it bolts up...

    How Do You Remove the Shift Lever/Shaft Assembly from the Exhaust Housing

    I have a 1976 25HP 25602 Evinrude outboard. I have removed the power head and the linkage to the shift rod. Should the assembly just pull out? Didn't want to force anything until I know for sure. The lever and shaft assembly are hard to move back and forth.

    Question on Removing Power Head on 1976 25hp Evinrude 25602

    The shift lever is pretty hard to move back and forth, and I think I need to get the power head off to clean out the old grease and crud and re-lube the inner workings. Manual says I need to remove the flywheel/carb etc. The engine runs pretty well, and I don't want to mess around with that much...
