How do you remove a stuck bearing housing from a 1993 50hp Yamaha outboard lower unit?

To remove a stuck bearing housing from a 1993 50hp Yamaha outboard lower unit, first ensure the lower unit is securely supported. Apply penetrating oil around the housing and let it soak for a while. Use a bearing puller or a soft hammer to gently tap around the housing’s edges, applying even pressure to avoid damage. If it remains stuck, consider using heat cautiously to expand the metal, which can help release the housing.
