    OK, I’ll be using the pipewrench method / my largest socket was just a bit small.

    ONE MORE QUESTION

    Should there be a washer or lockwasher under the flywheel nut? There wasn’t one when i took it apart and there is no diagram in the Merc service manual for this model/ just a reference to torquing it ( in the general powerhead section), then removing the nut adding a lockwasher and then torquing it again. Puzzling.
