Reply To: KG7 Water Pump Cover Removal

[bkrsdoz]

I had soaked and heated the cover for several days.
I clamped the tool on so it could not ride up on the holes in the cover and slip.
Both pins snapped off clean on the tool, and the cover didn’t budge.
I will reluctantly drill out the cover as suggested, and collapse the remnants and remove it the hard way.
I now recall why I really like the vintage Johnson’s and Evinrude’s!
There is nothing quite like a KG7 whining on the back of the boat though!
I’ll keep at it and will be successful.
Thanks for the photos and suggestions.
