To get the drive fully in, you must turn the prop slightly, so the splines match into the coupler successfully. Never bolt them on, till the drive is all the way in. You can create damages to both splines.
@@tedsmarinerepair8956hello Ted ,learned so much from your videos. I broke the bonding screw on bell housing,should I try to drill it out or tap a another one beside it
I’m having some trouble getting the shift cable loosened due to it wanting to round off. I’ve applied minimal heat but no luck yet. Do you have any tips for getting it broke loose without anymore damage? Thanks again for the great content.
@@alanbrown3286 ok. So if its frozen cut the plastic cable end off close. And use a 9/16" 6 point deep socket to try to get it out. If not then you will need to drill the rest out and run a tap through to chase the threads.
@@alanbrown3286 the cable is steel so if you cut off the backside close you can use a punch to drive out the steel center part. Then the brass drills and taps easy
I have learned so much on all of your videos, thanks ted.

Yes you need to have the drive in forward to put it back on and turn the prop counter clockwise to line up the drive splines with the engine coupler.
@@tedsmarinerepair8956 Glad to see your still utilizing CZcams and commenting. Thanks again for all these amazing videos Ted. ❤
I will appreciate GEN2 also! thanks
Ted you the man, your videos are best I've found. do you have one showing how to remove hinge pins on pre alpha (non screw in type) ?
Nello,
Thank you for the positive comments. Unfortunately I do not have any videos of removing the Non-threaded hinge pins.
Great DIY's Ted! What happened to the Alpha One (1980's) Transom Repair (bellows) Part 3? Not on your site?
In progress.... and on the list of videos to finish.

Is this where it threads into the bell housing?
@@tedsmarinerepair8956 yes, the nut is starting to rounds off.
