Reply To: Johnson Dt-10 Gearcase removal question.

[wanderlustjake]

Making progress. I discovered that by grinding the points of a 1″ spade bit, it fit perfectly to remove the nut holding the driveshaft casing. Once that was done and I scraped away some of the carbon and gunk, I was able to push the casing tube down and tap the gearcase free without damaging the water line. While tapping it free, the pin that holds the pinion gear at the correct height appeared.
Pretty happy now.
