Check brownspoint.com and look up your model number and you can download a free parts manual pdf and see how everything comes apart and goes together as well as part numbers if you need to order. My model # is 8501-2xxxxx which makes it a 1982 Suzi. I'm not sure if it works the same way on yours. These guys here will know though

Ah, the motor thing is just to be funny. On my 1982 85hp I have to disconnect the shifter from the top just under the carbs before I can drop the foot. After that it's a cinch.....2 nuts up top and 6 or 7 at the foot and 'pop', there it goes. Pretty easy stuff.......
