Very easy. Just remove the small cover. The hard part will be finding a seal. Most likely you won't be able to get one from merc. You can get one from some place that sells bearings and seals though. Also there's an o-ring on the cover you will want to replace. # 21 in the diagram.

If you don't feel like shopping around locally you can get the seal and o-ring here.

Not my number. That's a guy, Kirk Casey in Bellingham Wa. that has a boat repair shop. He collects, rebuilds and sells these old Merc Trans transmissions. Parts are pretty much unavailiable from mercury as these were last made around 1980.

Merc is calling it the pump cover seal, however I would tell KC you need the " Input shaft seal". They'll know what you mean.
Another way is remove the seal and measure the outside diameter and mic the shaft and take the seal and measurements to a place that specializes in selling bearings and seals.
