I need to replace my PTT motor on my 99 Mercury 150. Trying to unscrew the bolt in the back I couldn’t get a bite. Of course it seems I’m not the first person to venture back there and after getting my camera in there, I see it’s stripped. 😭 It seems I have to remove the entire unit now.
Is there a trick to get the PTT unit out without doing anything with the engine? I REALLY dont want to unbolt anything on the engine. I’ve already disconnected all the bolts and the hydraulic ram.
Thank You

Well, pull off the starboard side transom bracket. that allows the entire PTT system to come off.
