Re: fussing with 1985 v/6 evinrude gearcase
using bungees around case helps if you trying to do it alone......i leave motor and gear case in neutral....lift gear case until i got water tube lined up....next is the drive shaft( mercury) while holding pressure on shaft with 1 hand on the case ....i reach up and turn flywheel until shaft pops in...on mercs u can then get the front nut started so it takes the weight off while lining up the shift shaft....might have to go back down then up again until you stab it on.
im usually ready to throw up from straining by the time im done.
what will really piss you off is when you get everything tightened up....try on hose and NO WATER FLOW!! off she comes again for another round!!

Re: fussing with 1985 v/6 evinrude gearcase
thank you i know what your saying but again this is is a evinrude and it clearly states put into reverse before removeing the gear case and dont take it out untill its bolted back and operational the linkage cable tray is removed at the lower carb to get acess to the thru pinch bolt that connects to the shift rod so moveing the shifter is not advisable considering the throtle /shift cable holds is removed dont want to risk it got a friend that worked on this motor years ago thats going to do this sunday thank you. gary
