[QUOTE="Pappy, post: 438188, member: 3278"] [size=5]First, to give you peace of mind. Will be a bit more specific on powerhead removal. There are 6 retaining bolts at the bottom that need to be removed. Remove the air silencer and choke knob from the carburetor. Remove the rewind starter. You will need a 3/8-16 nut handy. Unscrew the one bolt and be careful not to allow the spring to come out. Watch the lower cup..... Tie a loop in the starter rope (pull some out). Once removed put the 3/8-16 nut on the bottom of the bolt to retain the starter assy. Remove the 3 pan mount nuts. Remove the upper two washers (large and small). Remove the fuel line from the fuel pump. Replace when the powerhead is off...freshen it up! Remove any ground wiring from the stop switch and the black/yellow as well. You will see the throttle gearing. This should come up by itself. Note the position for re-assembly. Clean and lube everything while you have the p'head off. [/size] [/QUOTE]
