I know you put this out a long time ago but this was the best and only video that showed how to disconnect the linkage and shift lever to get the lower off. Thank you!!
This is an amazing video. Most people do not provide this level of detail. It has been about 5 years since I replaced my Johnson 60 water pump and this will help me a ton! Thank you for putting this video together!
Well.. I almost literally gave up on my evinrude 70 yesterday until I saw your video. I didn't know omc went from a bolt to a pin on the bottom shifter linkage and i had no idea what to do at that point..Turns out my impeller was OK but it was a plugged thermostat. Thanks for the video sir!
This video was very helpful and you should do more of them. I replaced my pump after viewing your video which saved me a ton of money doing it myself. Thanks
Just bought a Bass Tracker with a 1990 50HP Evinrude on it that needs a new water pump. I'm pretty handy and figured I could handle the job on my own. I watched your video to get an idea of what I will be getting into. Never worked on an outboard before but after watching I feel pretty confident I can handle it. Thanks for the video you did a great job.
Great video. I'm working on a 110 Johnson so there are things that are different but you've done such a good job explaining how things work that I'm better equipped to figure out what's what with my motor. I've watched several videos that are specific to my motor that didn't do such a good job. Thanks for posting it and I loved the Obama comment!
Very informative! Well done video. I liked that you took your time to explain and show what you did. Not many people do that. Great teaching skills. Thanks for this
I ihave to do this job in the coming week-end for my nephew, i'm a retired millwright so mechanicwise i should not have any bad surprises thanks to your video, one thing i was happy to leatn was that it comes in a kit, again very nice vdéo thank you very much.
The best instruction video for water pump change I've seen yet. I just got a pontoon boat with 70 hp 1977 Johnson engine runs good to my surprise planning to change water pump right away. Thanks for your video.
I just wanted to say thank you for putting out this video it's helped myself in along with 100 other people on your comment last year and to better understand the logistics of the impeller and how it works and and what information is needed to to put it back in there and make sure that everything is thoroughly done and and I appreciate that cuz it's not a lot of information out there on these motors and yeah thank you I appreciate it
Thank you for making this! I feel like I can now tackle this basic project on my 70 VRO and save some $$$.... I understand this is a must for preventative maintenance.
Thanks posting this, even if it's been a while. I've done an Evinrude 115 etech, but I couldn't figure this out without a tutorial because it's not just one pin to pull. Cheers!
Phenomenal video. I'm working on a 70 horsepower and have not been able to find pretty much any information and you have tremendously helped me get a lot farther than I was before today.
Thank you for making this video! You were very detailed and informative. It has helped me with my impeller replacement. I appreciate the time and effort you put into it to help others!
I have a 70 hp Johnson. When I do the water pump I will fallow your instruction. Very good video on lower unit removal ,water pump and lower unit install. Thanks
I definitely like your style, you explained everything perfectly I’m going to attempt to replace my water pump on my 60 hp Johnson motor you’ve been a very good help thank you keep the videos coming
Thank you so much sir, that motor is exactly the same as mine, your teaching is so clear and understandable and easy to learn so I'm gonna try it I've never ever messed with aboat motor by replacing parts so thank you for your time sir its greatly appreciated
I appreciate your video on disconnecting the shift linkage! I would have broke the pin thinking it pushed out. Instead the pin is part of the unit and it just twist and pulls out. Thank you!
Watching many videos to disarm my 88 spl lower unit. TODAY I TAKE IT OUT !! I found that it was different from those with the pin. looking for 88 90 110 all different .. ahy I found your video. helpful to put it back !! Now I go reseal and new water pump. and go fishing soon !! thank
where is bottom oring under impeller i noticed new bottom plate is way diffrrent from original with no hole aswell is this something to be worried bout bro??
Thanks so much for the video! The explanation of the shift linkage disengagement was worrying me. Now I feel confident to start the job. I didn't see you use a torque wrench or retap the bolt holes. I was debating buying an SAE tap kit and torque wrench, but if I don't need to spend another 100 bucks, that would be great. My (1998) 90 hp VRO has only seen salt water since a rebuild in 2007, though I always flush in fresh water after every trip.
This video saved me, I was completely stumped about how to get the shift shaft free and then I saw this video and now the job is done. He shows how to do the tricky bits. I have his next video ready for the carbies (why three of them?) Thanks
Thx for posting! Im buying a 73 vintage boat tomorrow n the guy said it overheats due to the impeller he has the new part n it just needs to be swapped out. I feel better about buying it now. Ty
Excellent video. Plastic key failed for some reason. Also noted that a six blade impeller with three cut off had been installed. Guess you sometimes have to use what you have available. Thank you.
