[QUOTE="CountryRN, post: 290139, member: 9551"] Hey all, I have a late 80's Mercury 4hp. I have replaced the cooling impeller and am trying to reinstall the lower unit. I am having trouble with getting the drive shaft to fit back into the splines on the power head. I am able to get the lower unit about 1.5-2 inches from seating into place and just hit a stopping point. I have tried moving the shift lever from reverse to foward and I have tried rotating the prop in attempt to turn the drive shaft to better aline the splines. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
