Hello boating enthusiasts:
I was given a running older Mercury 110 (9.8) hp motor. My problem is the cowling release lever is not working. The lever moves about 1/4” but does not unlatch the rear of the cover. Is there an alternate method for getting the cowing off other than cutting it off. I am willing to cut an access hole in the back of the cover if need be. I have sprayed the hole around the lever with WD-40 and PB Blaster if that helps. Thanks. Jack
