Johnson 25 hp Water pump

I’m putting a water pump in on a 1990 long shaft 25 hp for a friend of mine. I got the foot seperated about 1/2" but don’t see where to disconnect the shift shaft at…anybody done one?
and know how to do that…Thanks

youtube has a 15 hp on there, looks like a flathead screw on the shifter linkage?

I believe you have to remove the “screen” in the foot and it’s there. Haven’t done one in a while but I have the service manaul at the house. I’ll check when I get home if you want to give me a call. 843-327-3137.

May need to shift into forward to drop a little more to where you can see the screw on the shift linkage. That is my guess.

It ain’t no mystery…this beer’s history!

behind the water inlet
there is a nut and a plastic little wedge piece
don’t lose it
it will work without it, but you wont be able to adjust the shift correctly

when you succeed, tell me how to do it.

I couldn’t get the split plastic nut to separate from the brass nut.
