How do you replace impeller in 1976 Johnson 85HP?

Answer 1

hi, The shift cable connects to a rocker arm that then connects to your shift rod, on most out boards there is a nut located underneath the carb's that you would remove. but in your case you must loosen the rocker arm (5/8" bolt) enough to get the pin out of the shifter rod, once the shifter rod is loose/not connected you take out the 7 bolt's that hold the foot on, off. then you will see the black plastic housing that hold the impeller take off the 4 bolt's and the impeller is off. I hope this helps
