@@garbageman1983 the issue I was having was more than just a bolt on the shift shaft linkage. It also has a pin running horizontally that slides directly into the shift shaft. I had to put it in neutral, remove the cotter pin on the bar and then slide it over to release from the shift shaft. 1994 Johnson Fast Strike 175

Another thing that was not covered during the installation of the lower unit back into the outboard. There is an inner water tube that needs to be inserted into the pump housing for the water to get transferred. This is a big deal because that tube sometime will not line up, you have to coax it into the hole.

I am writing this comment on Sept 29, 2023, in order to add some important clarity as to what is involved in changing out the water pump on an OMC V-6 outboard engine. The subject video indicates that it applies to all engines from 85 to 300 hp. My OMC is a mid 1980s 150hp V-6. If possible I will include a photo of its exact “ID plate”. This video begins with a very quick comment advising that first you disconnect the “shift rod” LINK so that you can drop the lower gear case, then allowing the new water pump to be installed. They give a very quick 4 seconds of video showing that “disconnect” proceedure. (See video 18 seconds to 22 seconds for this disconnect) NOW I WILL TELL YOU that it took me well over one hour just to find that disconnect point TODAY on my 150hp OMC V-6 !!!! It is a slotted head bolt that’s about a 5/16” head. That bolt head faces toward the port side of the engine. It requires a screwdriver that is 12” long just to touch the head of that slotted head bolt, it is so deep within the engine. Once I found it it was so buried within the interior of the motor that although equipped to photograph the disconnect bolt I was unable to do so. On my motor that bolt is about 10 inches in from the port side cowling’s edge. Further it is in back of and below the lower most carburetor. It CANNOT be reached from either the front of the motor OR from the starboard side of the motor. MY POINT HERE TO YOU READING THIS IS - - IT IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO REMOVE THE SUBJECT BOLT EVEN FROM THE PORT SIDE OF THE MOTOR. I am an experienced mechanic with many decades of having done this kind of work. IF you do remove the subject shift linkage bolt you will then be tasked with reinstalling that bolt after you replace the relatively easy water pump. Realigning the two pieces of shift rod and then putting the bolt back into that assembly will be the closest thing to “brain surgery” that I can imagine. You will likely drop the bolt int the innards of the motor’s swivel mechanism and that is when your real troubles will begin. As good as the subject video is as regards the actual water pump change it is terribly flawed in not thoroughly addressing the problem of the shift rod disconnect and reconnect. I’ll include two important photos if this video allows that. Apparently unable to add photos. THIS IS A JOB FOR A HIGHLY SKILLED MECHANIC WHO HAS DONE THIS EXACT PROCEDURE MANY. MANY TIMES.

XLNT Video ! Here a note on Disconnection of the Shift rod/shaft from the shifter pin in front of the engine : There is a) the small bolt to be unscrewed & b) a tiny "hair pin" to be pulled that needs to released on the shifter pin before the shift rod/shaft hole is freed from the tiny pin on the shifter bracket. a & b must be released before one can c) push the shift rod from starboard to port (gear side towards center) out of the shift rod/shaft hole - and opposite to reinstall. A head lamp is good for light. No need to dismount the lower cowlings or the carbs. (on OMCs 1993-97 115 HP & 175 HP 60degr.)

Nice Video. I've spent a few days trying to figure something out. I am swapping lower units. The one that I removed has a STRAIGHT shift rod (not even sure it's the correct one. I was Bait & Switched). The replacement one, has a bend at the top. Which is correct? If the bend is no good, do I just remove the straight one, and put it on the replacement? It's a 1994 150 Ocean Pro. I'm using the lower unit, of a 1996 200 Ocean Pro, which I believe to be compatible.

I contacted a boat mechanic about putting in a new gimbal bearing, and shift cable (because my boat was taking on water thru a slit in the shift cable boot) he instructed me on the kit I needed to order with the new bearing and gaskets, shift cable etc He came over to my house where I keep my boat and removed the sterndrive to get to the worn out gimbal bearing and proceeded to install the new one with his alignment bar, but the bearing wouldn’t go into its place in the gimbal housing. His bar he was using was not being held horizontally so naturally the bearing won’t seat properly. He worked at this for at least an hour or more. Finally he jumps up in my boat and removes the engine cover/shroud. He then proceeds to take his mallet and large crescent wrench and starts to strike the wrench to loosen the front engine bolt (which is responsible for the alignment of the engine coupler that the sterndrive fits in to) then he gets back out and starts hitting the alignment tool to seat the gimbal bearing, he couldn’t do it so I asked if I could try, I took his mallet and held the bar perfectly horizontal and seated the bearing on my first try. At this point I’m getting suspicious with his intent. So now that the bearing is in he can bolt my stern drive to the back of the boat and I could order a new lower unit that he could just bolt on when it comes in, needless to say, the stern drive will not slide in to the engine coupler because I believe he knocked the entire engine out of alignment by a few millimeters when he hit his wrench with his mallet on the front engine bolt and adjustable nut. Usually if there’s an alignment issue the stern drive will not come out easily but mine came right out with ease when he first took it off to get to the gimbal bearing. He kept on saying that my boat “hates him” because it was giving him such a hard time getting back together and he just couldn’t figure out why the sterndrive wasn’t going in. I then mentioned that he had turned the front engine bolt and he said that that wouldn’t be the problem. This event was Saturday Feb 13th, 2022. (I asked a mechanic on Thursday February 24th and there’s no reason to adjust that bolt in order to seat a gimbal bearing). So he promised to come back the next day (Feb 14) and get everything back together so I paid him $380 for his time that day and we set a time the following day and he came over and worked 4 more hours to absolutely no progress whatsoever. He couldn’t get the sterndrive back on. This was on Superbowl Sunday. At this point we both knew that I needed a new lower portion of the sterndrive so he recommended I just order a new one and when that comes in he’d come over and install for me. I just went ahead and ordered a new complete sterndrive and it arrived at my house and I texted him that it had come in and he’d come over on Wednesday which was Feb 23 to install it. On Wednesday, 3.5 hrs of trying to install the new stern drive but no success. Finally he gets up in the boat and looks around the back engine compartment and discovers the real reason why the sterndrive wouldn’t go into to the engine coupler and it was because my rear engine mounting bolts and bushings needed to be replaced. He said it was a really easy job then explained he needed to lift the entire engine out of the boat to be able to replace those parts (which would cost around $60 for parts) but his labor would be no less than $1000.00 and that this would fix the problem. At this point I just realized I am a victim of the “long con” Shortly before finding the “real” reason the sterndrive wouldn’t go in he asked me if I knew what boat stands for, I said no, then he said Bend Over And Take it. He chuckled. I didn’t. Prior to this recent event I had my boat at the marina exactly 13 months ago for a diagnostic and the technicians called me back in their shop area to explain to me what needed done and they showed me the gimbal bearing and my leaking lower unit of the sterndrive with the stern drive off the boat on their small hoist and I stood there and watched them reinstall the sterndrive. It reattached to the back of the boat with ease, but I thought nothing of it until this guy a few days ago had such difficulties for 3 separate days (Saturday February 13th, Sunday February 14th, and Wednesday February 23rd) Now I feel like I’m being held hostage and I gotta pay $1000 ransom to get my boat back in working order which really just amounts to turning the front engine bolt to get the engine coupler back in alignment with the gimbal housing so the sterndrive shaft will slide in with ease like it did in the past. So yesterday, Thursday February 24th, I went on to the website “Just Answers” where I texted back and forth with a certified boat technician and told him basically what I’ve written here and he concurred with me and I have a copy of our dialogue thru the JustAnswers App on my iPhone. I’m wondering if I have a case with sufficient evidence that the court would recognize? I never got anything in writing from him so I’m wondering if I’m out my $480? Thanks for reading this! So basically I don’t think the front engine bolt needed to be messed with just to install a gimbal bearing
