How do you remove the prop seal on a 1968 mercury 60 outboard?
Billbeau
With the prop removed, you will expose the bearing carrier retaining nut. This nut must be removed, (screwed out of the housing), it has righthand threads. With a puller, the carrier can now be removed from the gear housing. The propshaft seal(s) can now be removed, and replaced with new. Be sure to replace the carrier o-ring while you have the carrier out. Use a sealer, such as gel seal on the outside edge of your prop seals when you install them. Also, don't be afraid to use some grease when you reinstall the carrier and retaining nut.

How do you flush out a 9.9hp mercury outboard?
The 9.9 hp Mercury outboard requires a special flusher, and removal of the propeller is suggested for ease of installation. You can use a regular flusher if you position it just right, (the water pick-up is located underneath the anti-ventilation plate, above the prop), but I find it easier to use a barrel or waste can.

I have a 60 hp mercury outboard The bottom tip of the skeg was broken off about 2 to 2 12 It does not seem to be effecting handling or performance is it necessary to try to fix it?
It's good to repair it as it protects your lower unit and prop. However it won't affect handling. It is not a rudder, it is a prop protector.
