Greetings;
Here's the story, I am "trying" to do a water pump on my 1997 225 Yamaha (model s225turv), according to the service manual it has 6 bolts around the lower unit, when you remove the trim zinc there is another bolt underneath.
All of them are removed... No problem so far, so I was hoping the lower unit would just come out. Nope, wont drop or move at all. I took a 8oz rubber hammer and thought a few love taps around the lower unit would jar it loose. Nope, still attached with NO movement.
Any other ideas on how to get a lower unit that really likes to be attached to the mid section off? (short of using a sawzall to get it off )
Thanks
Tom
