right side mount the stud is broken and I bought a new mount. The steering bracket is in the way of the inner screw. Whats the easiest way to change this?

Remove the vertical throttle shaft and inlet gas hose.
Remove the nut from the other one on the other side, and the front one also.
Remove the clamshells from the lower mounts

Grab hold of the lower unit and powerhead and rotate the entire motor out of the steering bracket (lower unit to the rear and everything up and out).

I have the new parts. I just need to know exactly what parts to remove to get the mount out.

Now you have me confused. I thought I explained that in post #2.

Just trying to clarify what the vertical throttle shaft and inlet gas hose are. I've never taken this apart before.

I think this is the throttle shaft he is talking about. And the gas inlet hose I would assume you just unscrew it at the fuel pump where it says filter.
