Re-installing lower unit on 60-70's 9.8 Mercury
I pulled the lower unit on my 9.8 mercury outboard to check the water
pump. I am trying to reinstall it, and everything appears to aligned correct, but I can not get it to reassemble the last 1". Neither the drive shaft nor the direction shaft have corrosion on the ends, and neither is chipped or broken. I had pulled it apart about a year ago, and reassembled it pretty smoothly. I can not remember having to do anything special to reassemble. I can see where the direction shaft is engaging with the motor, from a side view. If I wiggle the direction handle, I can see the shaft move with it. So it appears to be aligning. Anyone with any suggestions or tricks for alligning/assembling? |
