    I tried various things several more times with no luck,
    then studied the brass washer, which looked like a perfect
    fit inside the tiller handle. I borrow the whole tiller arm
    from an Evinrude Big Twin. It was missing the spring and
    friction block, which I purchased.
    I found a brass washer on the work bench,
    and presumed it fell out of the tiller handle…. It must not
    of. I ground off a 1/16" diameter on the washer, and
    it fit 1/4" further back into the tiller handle.
    Bingo, everything went back together pretty slick then.
    Sad to think I wasted an hour of my life because of
    a washer, lol.

    Prepare to be boarded!
