    Having a hard time putting it back together

    I took my lower unit off to replace the impeller. I am trying to put the lower unit back on the upper. I got out my manual and it says I can spin the prop shaft to get the drive shaft to line up. When I spin the prop shaft I dosnt move the drive shaft. Any ideas?

    Tks

    Just got a 2006 boat. It has the Mercury 5.0 Tks. Only had cold weather around 40-55 to take it out. It is a pain to get started up. Started to take a look at the carb and no choke? Is it normal for this motor to take a few to start. Use to my old omc that would fire with just a pump. Thanks Erik
