Hello all, long time lerker, first question. I am busy doing fall maintenance to our first boat, i have pulled the drive (was difficult to come off) and I am attempting to perform an alignment check. The issue is the alignment tool will not go in to the splines at all, i have cleaned the coupler with a wire brush and soapy water and got most of the old grease out, will with no change. I also bought a 1" wooden dowel (diameter 1.005") and tried to fit it in the coupler thinking the alignment was way off, and found that the coupler splines were leaving grooves in the wood. Is this a sign of a bad coupler? Thanks for any help or suggestions you can provide.
