Re: Wizard motor take apart

I'm attempting to clean the water pump and I removed 4 screws around the prop area that are the pump/prop onto the lower unit of the outboard. There is a slight opening between the water pump and the lower when I remove the screws but it won't come out readily. Did I possibly reassemble the water pump/prop back on incorrectly by not lining something up correctly. If that's the case then I'm screwed. The crank shaft is still moving when the prop is moved which gives me hope that I didn't break it. The new coil came in today so I plan on a test run tommorow.

Re: Wizard motor take apart

The short answer to nate's question is yes. Don't crank it out of water.

Re: Wizard motor take apart

I put the new coil in today and the ohms meter is transferring electricity but there is no spark, what are some possible issues?

Re: Wizard motor take apart

It would be helpful to see picture as I can't see what you are saying regarding
the water pump/gear case/prop shaft/prop difficulty. I have been called dense.

The brass plug in gear case is almost always fused to aluminum gear case by
corrosion. If stuck best to leave it be.
