You will need to pull the engine to replace the coupler but that is not a
major task if you have access to an overhead hoist.

I have a 2002 Stingray 240cs with a 5l Mercruiser and Alpha one
outdrive.

I'm pretty sure the engine coupler is spun. Does the engine have to
come out to replace this? or can I do it in place?
