I decided to do a full service on a new to me 2016 Yamaha F6SMHA. It has seen some salt water but not too bad.
It was a bit hard to get the lower Unit separated but once apart looked pretty good. When I try to get it back installed I for some reason cannot get the driveshaft splines to fit back into the power head.
I have a piece of ready rod the same diameter and I can get it to fit in but no matter what I try I cannot get the driveshaft back into the power head.
I’ve done dozens of Johnson’s and Evinrudes but this is the first Yamaha.
What am I missing ?
Thanks !!
