I've been reading over your proceedure and am having trouble wrapping my head around:
Now from the pump body you are going to see a link rod that connects to the throttle linkage with a ball socket, disconnect that ball socket at the throttle linkage, it justs pops off with a little effort.
Got this... seems relatively easy.
Then you will see the pump arm rotate to full 50/1 oil feed position, this will allow you to do this on a flush attachment in the driveway without having to put the boat in the water and run at high speed.
Not sure what you mean re above... "pump arm rotate to full 50/1" - hmmm?? Are you saying I can do a flush on the driveway somehow and don't have to do the step below?
Now you have to run the engine on pre-mix 50/1 in a remote tank to make sure while the engine is running it is getting the correct amount of oil while the remainder of the air is bled from the oil pump. Run it at a fast idle for 20 minutes and your done!
Not sure about above either...
What happens (doesn't) happen when I remove the rod?
