[QUOTE="wmk0002, post: 414033, member: 13975"] I have a 1982 9.9hp Evinrude long shaft I am having a hard time removing the lower unit on. I removed the 6 bolts attaching leg extension to the exhaust housing but cant get the LU to drop down enough to get anything on the shift rod screw. Leroy says to use a rubber mallet to separate it enough to get the shift rod screw off then finish separating it by driving wooden wedges in between. This seems reasonable but wanted to see if anyone had any additional tips? The motor has some corrosion on the LU, exhaust leg, and bottom cowl but the 6 LU bolts came out easy so I was hoping the drive shaft wasn't stuck either. I ran out of daylight tonight so won't get back to it until tomorrow evening or this weekend. [/QUOTE]
