You have a spun hub. Either replace the prop or have a prop shop re-hub it.

Is the motor running and in gear and the shaft spins without the prop...or are you turning the prop by hand and the gears do not engage?

What motor are you working on? 1986 WHAT????? remove spark plugs, put motot in gear, and turn flywheel by hand, prop should turn, it you can hold prop still and turn flywheel, either mis adjusted shift linkage, broken drive or prop shaft.
