Seeing how I’m missing the spring for the carbon seal assembly,
I order a complete, used” assembly off of Ebay, from a latter
Evinrude 7.5 hp, I believe. From what I read, those components
should work on the TN-28, and are the same parts shown
in the Johnson “upgrade” Service Bulletin…….. time will tell anyway.
What I’m wondering now, is it possible to install the carbon seal
components on the driveshaft, and slide the whole works up
thru the mid section of the motor, or does one need to pull the power
head, install the midsection with lower unit with driveshaft, and set the carbon seal
assembly onto the top of the driveshaft?
I could not find anything in the 3rd or 10th edition manuals to answer
my questions.
Thanks.
Prepare to be boarded!
