How do I pull out a Mercruiser 5.0 with a lift????

[mirekjanowiak@charter.net]

Well just took the exhaust manifolds, elbows, starter, off and now found the issue, a oil pan hole. I need to replace the oil pan, with gasket....
Do I need to take the alpha one off the transom to pull the motor up about two feet? If so some pointers would be great.
Also I see two motor mount screws in front, what do I need to lossen in the back of engine to lift the engine up a bit? Instrustions please....

There's 6 nuts holding the Drive,.... 2 more on the Trim Rams......

Then pull the bolts out of the front mounts,..... The 1s that thread into the Stringers,.......
The 2 Bolts at the back of the motor,......
Along with the various Wires,+ Lines for water,+ gas.......

I have seen it done where it was just lifted enough to sneak the pan out without disconnecting everything.....
Whether you can do that with you're particular boat will depend on its configuration.....​
