    Bob, thank you for the part numbers.  I have my new wobbler pump ordered.  While tinkering with my lower unit, I put the drive shaft back in and when I turn it, it does not turn the prop shaft.  Shouldn’t it?  Is there a trick to lining up the gears in the gear case with the drive shaft?  I have pushed the drive shaft down and wiggled it a bunch but it doesn’t seem to be lining up or meshing with the lower unit gears.   Any advice would be appreciated.  I would like to make sure I have this lined up and working properly before I re attached the lower unit to the powerhead.
