250es Owners. Just a Headsup!

For those who think you cannot pull the jug off a 250es with the motor in the frame, it can be done, I did it today, it just takes a little patience and manouvering ;)

Cya!

mind telling me how? was there a way to tilt the motor over?

[jeswinehart]

you don't need to take off the right side engine cover to replace the shift shaft on the es/sx on the left side of the motor (normally anyway).
The last bent shift shaft change out I done I thought I could get away w/o removing the right side case. This time when I had a opportunity I tryed it and and worked out fine.

unlike what the manual says ,,, just try the left side first and go to the right side if need be,

I rebuilt a few 250es engines and never took the engine out of the frame
