I am looking for someone experience repairing these Mercury Jet system. In particular my stator is leaking oil and i need the seals and bushing replaced. I live near brandon/riverview/apolo beach Florida and even possibly Bradenton Florida.
Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely

that is not good news. I am afraid of starting this project and not being able to complete it due to lack of necessary tools (including the possibility of busting a bolt and needing to drill it out).You have discovered the reason this forum exists. Very very few shops will work on our boats. True orphans.
Replacing seal and bushings in the stator is not too difficult after you have the stator in your hand. There are threads here on how to do it. While you are there, check the clearance between impeller and wear ring.

Do you think a Mercury dealer would be in a position to do this repair? I have used one in this area before even though I was not satisfied with the services "they claimed" to have performed.
is that part identified on either of these parts diagram??While you are down and back there; the rubber bellows on the steering and shift gate should be replaced. Standard maintenance items.
