Because Monday. Booooo.

No doubt about it.

I've been off for 3 Weeks.....It's really tough going back to work:smash:

 

[Blue Oval]

My last one week vacation was November of 2022. Always short a person and get stuck with a 3 or 4 day weekend. I really need to have a talk with the boss.

 

[rschap1]

Vacation good !
Work bad

Got all of the Bolts out of the Lower Unit.....Still won't come free....I can wiggle it , but the Driveshaft is probably Welded to the Motor..:huh:


Next up.....Sledge-0-matic:smash:

Ok but no outside in swing plane with the sledgehammer!

 

[rschap1]

Are you sure that you got ALL the bolts???
I always seem to miss a "hidden" one before finally getting things apart.

Bump the starter a few times. It may loosen the crud on the splines. If it dropped a little you can drive in some door shims to keep pressure tension on it. The wedges won’t damage the lower unit or midsection.

Drive a little wedge in the gap on aft side and run on hose.

 

[MOBILEMERCMAN]

The idea is to mis align the driveshaft so the rotation and harmonics of running loosen it.

 

[Bobcat]

I'll give it a try . (I like to wait until it's hot as balls Outside)

All of the Bolts are out , including the one under the Engine that holds the shift bar.

1999 New to Me in 06 still in the Crate Johnson 225.

Had to put it on the Battery Charger Overnight.....Couldn't spin fast enough to Start. Spun it a few Times and no luck yet.

I'll try again after Work...(first Day back after 3 Weeks!!!)

I still have not read any Bobcat tails of getting to ride in the $200.00 Exploder. It was much more comfortable then the Mustang ride.
