Hey All,
Engine Serial Number 1B822149
Removed the lower unit to install new water pump impeller. Notice some DFI oil on top of impeller housing, any ideas of which seal or seals are leaking?
Thanks-

Thanks for the reply everyone..... outstanding picture, at this time of my life, that's better than a centerfold. I have the Mercury manual, would anyone have a parts list or tips & trick for this task?
Hoping Don will chime in with a parts list, which I will buy the parts from him.
Out to the garage to start set up.

Also need a lift ring and a torque wrench adapter.
I used an engine hoist and left the powerhead hanging for a little over 3 days while I scraped the powerhead gasket with plastic scrapers.

I made this as my safety. I guarantee this would hold a small pick up. The top rungs are very shallow apart! Yes, massive and overkill!! As I stated I'm a machinist and welder. My load is not going anywhere!! Honestly what the ladder is holding(what 270 lb or lesssss). Know your ladder ratings( plus the safety factor). Most of all just good common sense!
By the way I kno 300 lb men using this ladder and it's using 1 ladder rung! Again this is not a CHEAP LADDER!

If I remember correctly on my engine, the thread size for the lower crankshaft seal assembly bolts were the same as the impeller housing. I didn’t have the forethought at the time I did mine but I think using the impeller guide pins would work for getting the crankshaft seal assembly installed evenly to get two of the bolts started.
Hopefully Joe or Don can confirm.
