    Removing impeller

    Alpha 1 Gen2 - Gimbal ring tabs cut off

    Those need to be there to reduce the load on the hinge pins. Have a feeling that the bell housing will be the next thing to crack

    Mercruiser 6.2L MPI overheating

    Check the water hose going from the drive bell housing to the transom plate. It might be twisted and going flat

    Removing impeller

    As Bt said it just pulls out, but many times its damaged when removed. I use a par of channel lock pliers. The impeller will last longer if removed every year, but I just replace every 2 and not worry about it. To reduce the set, keep the belt off and give it a 1/4 to 1/3 turn every month

    Idle speed, Mercruiser 2.8 165hp D-tronic

    Agree, don't post your phone number here You can buy and sell thru PM just no posting of such. So long as the solution is posted it would be good, and no one is under a requirement to do so, it just helps the community.

    Throttle adjustment

    Wish I had some idea of how to help. In most cases a scanner would not be able to change it, and even something like MEFI burn could change it. Have you checked for a vacuum leak?
