Re: Mercury Mark10 water pump removal

[GARY HIRSCHLIEB]

Thanks for all the feedback…it’s really appreciated. More questions: the service manual indicates there is a roll pin that comes in from the side and keeps the water pump assembly from rotating, the manual goes on to say the cover plate must be tilted to be removed(get by the pin). If you remove the power head and drive down on the assembly from above,,,,does the pin interfere? I think the service manual isn’t quite clear enough…for the the first time rebuilder.

Also, I’ll look into the water level of my test tank…I trust the level only need be up to the lower ‘dyna-float’ medallion?

Thanks again…
