"Howard.... Some of those mode

"Howard.... Some of those models have a pin through the upper portion of the driveshaft which needs to be aligned with a slotted passageway.

Turn the prop or flywheel somewhat while applying a slight bit of pressure downward on the gearcase. If that pin exists, you'll feel it when it aligns, then the gearcase will drop away.
