I got lucky and the lower unit went in fairly easily. I tilted the outboard up so I could see up it whilst sitting on a chair. Also used a strong flashlight to get a good look inside. Was pretty much able to see the drive shaft until the last moment at the right angle. My issue was that the gear selector clamp was quite high up so couldn’t get a socket on it. Got there in the end. Thanks for making these videos they’ve really helped !!

I have never seen a shaft keyway fall out before they are usually installed snug. If it falls out then someone has messed with it. Then again I have never messed with outboards but I have worked on many motors.

If, when using internal tank and you find it's taking 15 pulls to prime the bastard....?? Fill up your damn internal fuel tank. The carb intake point is high up on these motors (3/4 's the way up the internal tank). So stop fighting an uphill priming situation by making it a downhill one Simply by filling the tank up past the 3/4 mark. Before starting period you will find out about five folds is sufficient versus the twenty pulls with a quarter tank

Hi, I just bought Hangkai 2 stroke 6HP outboard, the look of lower part are similar with what you have on your video.. my question is, after I first use in the lake, i found some leaks out with green stuff ( grease + water ), the joint from the upper & lower part, the section leaks out is on your video unscrew and joint area ( not the lower gearbox area ) .. is that normal?? and inside will get wet everytime when I use the outboard motor ??

Thanks a lot for the nice video and all good comments! I'm really really glad I took my time to see this before I start working on my old 2 stroke 4 hp. I would guess the lower part on my 2 stroke is built the same as this 4 stroke. One essential question tho: If you turn the thing up side down, isnt there a real danger that the impeller securing pin can fall out of position inside there? I know its grease there, but still..

Gently clean the upwater pipe a few inches. You want a good seal to keep water pressure steady/solid. TINY bit of grease will help it slide. Vasoline is ok. Won't dissolve the rubber.

Also inspect and replace the rubber shaft and water up pipe rubber boot as well. Tight seals are necessary and cheap. Spinning shaft inside the rubber boot will cause wear of the boot collar. Salt is the enemy.

One more thing for the long neck outboard like mine. It has an extra part between the lower unit and the rest of the motor to make it longer, obviously. Its about 6" long and if you just remove the lower unit, change the impeler and try o put it back with those extra 6" is next to impossible because the shaft guide hole is 6" inches too far. So what i did is i removed the extension, mounted it to the lower unit and than it was easy. I managed to put it all back without any problem, however, i do not remember hearing any clung sound.

Many thanks for the video and those that contributed with your brilliant suggestions. I played this many times and read all the comments making notes to solve my exact same problem for my 2014 Mercury 6hp 4 stroke that came with my sailboat purchased last year. Here are my notes: When taking off the lower unit be careful to leave the locking clamp for the upper and lower gear shifters attached to the upper one. Just loosen it so the lower shifter can slide out. o Re-installing the lower unit was extremely difficult, I spent countless frustrating hours and could not get the driveshaft to mate with the hole. I managed to get the lower gear shifter through the clamp and the upper hole where the rubber bung is and the gear shifter should protrude through it and is visible from the outside. Bought an endoscope-inspection camera and saw what the problem was. The tip of the drive shaft was past the hole which protrudes a couple of inches down. You have to make sure the upper shifter is as far up and protruding through the rubber bung hole as possible, you can tighten the clamp and change gears to Forward to pull it up. You can use some rope to support the lower unit. Carefully lower the lower unit until you can see the shaft is just past the shoulder of that protruding driveshaft hole - the upper gear shifter may disappear under the rubber bung but shouldn’t come out of the hole underneath otherwise you’ll have to get this back in the hole again which is a bit fiddly. When you see that the tip of the drive shaft has been lowered down past the shoulder of the protruding drive shaft hole, push the lower unit back up and guide the drive shaft into the hole! Voila, sorted! Turn the prop a little in either direction and the drive shaft gear cog should fall through the mesh in the hole and lock up. That clunk sound and feeling is so satisfying! After using the endoscope it took me about 10 minutes to sort! Save myself money and the shame of taking it to a professional for a coked up DIY job. o To make sure the gears are set correctly (mine moved from the initial Reverse position when lowering the Lower Unit) the upper shifter should stick out of the rubber bung hole at the top of the leg as follows:-  The engine gear selector is in Forward gear, the tip of the upper linkage will now protrude from the hole in the top of the drive shaft housing by about 28mm (1 and 1/8 inches).  When it’s in Neutral the link protrudes by about 17mm and  when in Reverse by about 7mm.  You can turn the prop to see if its in gear or neutral and tighten/untighten the shifter linkage clamp (through the round spy hole) to adjust as above. To push down the gear shifter use a flat piece of metal (I used a paint scraper) to push down on the protruding upper shifter.

Hi David Thankyou for your post. I’ve just changed the impeller on my Yamaha 5hp 4 stroke for the first time. I too struck the same problem as yours with relocating the drive shaft when reassembling the leg. I nearly had a hysterical laugh watching the motor upside down in the end to fix the problem except that I had the same issue and spent numerous frustrating hours trying to fix mine. An overnight brain storm had me thinking that I can use my fibre optic inspection camera to help me centralise the shaft. It worked and once I knew I was in the hub; the shaft engaged while I gently push up while spinning the prop. Saved me a journey of shame taking the motor to the dealer workshop to solve a botched DIY job.

Great video, helped me a lot. I fitted the the drive with the motor tilted (like attempt #1) and found a similar difficulty, but my problem was the gear rod to the tilt inhibitor wasn’t finding the hole. Once I guided it in using a small screwdriver from the outside the whole lot closed up with a satisfying “clunk”.

Re- installation of the lower unit does need to be this difficult. Get about a 18" section of 2 X 10 scrap from a construction site. Place the 2 X 10 into a strong vice mounted securely on a work bench. Mount the outboard on top of the 2 X 10. Then tilt the motor up. Now the opening for the lower unit is at a comfortable working height. Lay a small pen light in the bottom "V" of the opening. Lightly lubricate the shift rod. Now carefully and slowly slide the lower unit in until it makes contact with the shift rod. Place your right hand into the small round opening and line up shift rod. With the pen lights illumination, make sure the drive shaft gets into its lower guide hole. Remove pen light. Keep right hand index finger on shift rod linkage. Now slide in the lower unit while still keeping your index finger on the shift rod linkage. Now hopefully with a little wiggling all the connections will make up. Hope this helps.

Got a 1992 9.9 evinrude and i triple checked/rebuilt the carb, replaced the power pack, charge coil, ignition coils, spark plugs, primer bulb, fuel pump, water pump, new fresh gas and STILL wont turn over. I have plenty spark from both plugs. And checked the killswitch and that works fine (obviously since i have spark). And whats weird is even when spraying ether in the carb, or spraying inside the spark plug holes, even putting a little gas in there, it STILL wont fire. Sometimes it sounds like it wants to for a second but then dies. Im at a loss here. Anyone who has any ideas much appreciated.
@luissasmith2192
@luissasmith2192 9 ай бұрын
That sounds really frustrating. The next things to think about are incorrect mixture, incorrect spark timing, or poor compression. The latter can be tested if you have or can borrow a compression tester. I have no experience with that motor so cannot advise on how to check the timing, but perhaps there’s help out their on the web. For the mixture, obviously the choke must be working to start from cold so I’d check that, and also look for air leaks for example at the inlet manifold or head gasket, which would weaken the mixture.
