seems like it skips a lot of details on the difficult parts - like removing the bearing carrier retainer, removing the seals from carrier. Do you really need to remove all those parts from the bearing carrier? Seems more geared to someone who wants to take it to mechanic rather than do it themself.
I have a 9.8 hp mercury outboard with way does the bearing carrier turn? Clockwise or counter clockwise? Also, when did you ge the special tool? Thanks RSVP TODAY
@@muzikmanernie Old news now, but this inattention to detail is so typical, especially since most guys who do such jobs have truly horrendous communications skills. I'm about to replace the prop seals on a much smaller motor and have looked at several videos on the topic. Almost NO one says which way the seals should face, but in freezing the action and looking really closely at what different "experts" do (and for just a few of them, paying attention to what they say about this), it seems to be totally random. I looked at about ten different videos and saw three of the four possible arrangements of the seals being used by different people. I'm going to ask the guys at my local boat-repair shop.
