It doesnt seem like the prop is down far nough on the shaft....there is a gap berween the bottom of the prop and the motor base.

Looks like it needs to be turned by hand to line up splines...then it will slide on in.

Thanks for the help. Going to the shop just in case. It seems to be beyond my limited mechanical knowledge base.
