Re: 1966 Mercruiser 1-C Sterndrive Reseal
It's not a difficult job if it's only a reseal. If you have to set up shimming, then it will take longer. The only possible problems you'll encounter are the need for a few special tools, and any heavily corroded parts that may break as you attempt to dis-assemble them....
Removing the drive takes about 6 minutes. You then need to pressure test to find out exactly where you're leaking.
If it's the top box you'll need the tool for removing the front cover nut. If it's the lower box, you'll need the bearing carrier cover nut tool and pullers for the bearing carrier (this is the one most likely to break) and the shift shaft bushing tool. I believe all the tools are available from iBoats store....
