Oh man. Didn’t know you were working on a counter. That is a whole different animal. You can get a good price on a good used carrier from superior marine salvage in Bonita springs, Fla. Ask for jack. He has everything.

Like Pete said. You are missing The stock flywheel cover. The frame type mount is a Mercruiser stock mount for that motor. It is a great motor if it is maintained well. They had a few manifold problems. Always watch for water intrusion into the cylinders. Water in #4 cyl means the manifold or...

I’m not sure where my special tool is for this but I used to have a monster nut that was threaded for a prop shaft on one end and threaded for the slide hammer on the other. Like 2 different nuts welded together.

We only get 12 months out of the rubber impeller here in fla. The rubber dries out and the spring pressure in the cup goes down. If you take the impeller out of the cup and the blades are still bent, replace it. Got to also remove the shift shaft. Install the prop nut and the washer on the...

Apply heat where I am pointing to in the pic of the black lower I posted above.

Yw. Just replaced mine a few days ago.

Shift shaft is removed by removing the 3 bolts wit 10mm heads. Then pry out the round plastic Shaft housing evenly with 2 flat screwdrivers carefully. With the unit in neutral, the shaft will lift out.

Oh no. Definitely not hot enough. Did you use oxygen n acetylene? Needs to be around 800 to 1000 deg evenly around the housing. Just a few hundred deg under melting point. This will not hurt the housing. Heat it on the outside of the housing only where the carrier is touching inside. Remove all...

Very welcome. I am happy to help. I have found that Grady White owners are a different breed of people and I am proud to be part of the Grady White community. I bought my offshore in 2006 and would not trade it for anything but another Grady.

I try to explain the best I can. I basically tighten puller to 80% capacity then heat it. Tighten a little more then heat again til it pops.

Hate to say this but Map gas is Not hot enough. On the real stubborn ones, you get the housing close to the melting point. It expands the housing and melts the salt. Map doesn’t heat deep enough or fast enough to keep the whole housing hot at the same time. By the time you heat one part, the...

I use sea star fluid only. Had problems with other brands over time. Eats the seals. I am also doing it for customers. I am responsible for the overall outcome so I always use what I know has the least problems. I can bleed a complete system with 1 quart of fluid once some fluid is added to...

1 1/2 inch cap

Me too.

Was new installed. The Mercury dealer. Offshore performance in Bonita springs. Fla

This is the assembly procedure. Some of the info here you don’t need. You are only taking off the cam gear that is leaking. Before you remove the belt, put the engine at 0 deg tdc #1 cyl. Take note of the timing marks for all pulleys. Take many pics. Sometimes I mark the belt tooth and pulley...

Here are some pics of the procedure.

Wow. She is tight. How hot did you get it? Gotta use oxygen n acetylene on the outside of the housing 1 inch and 6 inches below the level of the prop shaft seal to loosen up the salt. If it is that tight, and you don’t heat it, you will crack the bearing carrier in half then you are really in...

I would check on 115 four stroke mercury. Their price is around 8500 installed in this neck of the woods.
