My evinrude also seized 2 seasons ago, one thing not to do is try to force it.I broke some teeth off at the steering box and had to replace it.I don't have hydraulic steering, so my job wasn't so bad.If I remember I just disconnected where the cable meets the motor and where the cable is attatched to the tube where the cable slides in.I tapped the cable end with a hammer and a piece of wood until it popped out.Cleaned out the tube really good,greased it up, and replaced with a new cable.
Still smooth as butter.
