Honda 90. No grease fittings or threaded holes. No open transome either. What did you think this was going to be a walk in the park. I am sure it is worse case F'in sernerio. You know the kind of problem that the guy says oh that's wierd. I am not a pessimist for nutin. you know 90% of the time you are right and 10% of the time you are pleasingly surprised.

Post a pic of the layout, maybe we can help with a plan of attack, I personally have done this over 20 times atleast. Not having an open transom sucks, but it is not impossible, besides maybe with luck it is not siezed in there really bad. |

So I need to smash the rod out of the tube from the opposite end. So the rod shoots out of the end it slides in and out of. Yeah that's going to happen. Probably hit the splashwell with the rod so you can't get it out even if you get it loosened up. Can't I just unbolt the whole shabang and get a new everything and bolt it on the motor? One with grease fittings. I am starting to hate boats.  I am so glad I kept my tin boat

Yes you can, but the tube it slides into is usually the pivot tube that the whole motor swings on. does it have a large nut on either side? Also you do not have to use a sledge hammer, in tight spaced areas I have rigged up a little hydraulic car jack haha, I used it like a porta power and it worked pretty damn good, but you hav eto hav ethe spance, and you have to have enough space to put a board behind it to distribute the pressure. |

then that is your pivot tube, and it baffles me that Honda did not put grease fittings in there! Are you sure there is none underneath? if you take the pivot tube off the whole engine drops off, so you will either have to take the engine off the transom, or find some way to secure it with a jack underneath, you will have to take the load of the tube to slide it out as well. OMC tubes go for about 60 bucks, I have never done a Honda one so I do not know exactly what is involved. |
