That's as much as I can tell you about it, though. It's probably based on the 6hp or 8hp model from that year, but I don't know. If you have a photo of it, we can tell.

That's a Canadian commercial 6.5 hp model, from 1987. As far as I know, it wasn't sold in the USA. It's a short shaft, rope start. Like a lot of the smaller motors from that period, it was made in Belgium.

Step 6. Gently pry the water pump housing up and off the gear casing using a flathead screwdriver. Be careful not to damage the mating surfaces of the lower casing. more
Step 1. Put the outboard in the forward gear position.
Step 7. Slide the impeller off the input shaft if it didn't come off with the housing. more
Step 4. Once the shift shaft bolt is loosened, rotate the lower unit as you pull it down to disengage the shift shaft. Next, remove the lower casing completely.
You certainly wouldn't be the first one to do this! You can replace the lever of course but you need to remove the powerhead to get it off and on. No big deal with these small motors - just takes a little time and care. [links]
I am able to shift it easily with a vice pliers or pliars so in a pinch I have operated it that way. Does anyone have advice on the repair? Is it really as complicated as they are telling me?
Have you got the bit that broke off? When this happened to my 6HP, I made up a couple of small stainless plates and drilled and screwed these to each side of the lever to hold the two parts together. Looks a bit ugly but does the job. I did try getting it welded but there's not really enough metal there for this to work. here

Continue to hold the throttle grip in the "dead slow" position. Leave the idle speed screw on its stop and pull on the throttle cable toward the cable bracket to remove all slack from the cable. Align the cable bracket with the mounting screw hole forward of the carburetor. [links]
Thread the cable through the attachment point to the linkage twice, wrapping the cable toward the end of the cable. Install the bracket to the manifold, placing with the flat washer between the manifold and the bracket. Thread the bracket retaining bolt into its bore and tighten the bolt to 36 inch-pounds with a torque wrench.
Turn to the motor. Grasp the idle speed adjustment knob. Turn it counterclockwise until it reaches the "dead slow" idle position. here
Attach the throttle cable to the top hole in the throttle lever arm. Insert the pin and fasten it in place with the cotter clip from the throttle repair kit. The clip must be parallel to the lever's raised ridge. [links]
The twist-grip on your Johnson outboard's tiller controls the motor's speed, like the gas pedal in your car. When the twist-grip gets "sloppy" or "out of whack," the problem is that the throttle cable has slipped or stretched and developed "backlash," or slack. You can repair the problem by adjusting the cable, pulling the slack from it and reconnecting it in its new position. Keep the backlash out of your cable and you can enjoy precise throttle control.
Set the cable retainer plate in place. Tighten the bolts snugly. Rotate the throttle grip at least three times to verify the idle speed screw touches the stop when the throttle is in the slowest speed position.
