I was not able to completely seperate the drive shaft housing from the prop drive unit. I was able to slide it quit a distance but not comletely off the drive shaft, don’t know that I need to?
Water pump appears to be in good shape, may need to make a replacement leather gasket.
From what I can see the drive and prop shaft gears look to be in good conditon with very little backlash.
How do I go about removing the cam and prop shaft? I’d like to have a closer look, clean and grease while apart. I’m thinking the larger nut on the back side of drive shaft housing needs to be loosened/removed. Are there any words of caution in disassembly? looks to be straight forward.
I’m thinking the pockets in the prop shaft housing are to be packed with grease, rather neat design.
