The shifting happens after the motor jerks real bad. Everything is perfect and running, fwd/rvrs are good, motor jerks/kicks, water stops flowing, no fwd, reverse is now forward. I have reinstated the shaft. I don't think it's a shaft issue unless im missing something.
Not sure what u mean by checking flywheel key. I did check the line marks on both sides of fly wheel.
