Well,after replacing the exhaust manifold and riser earlier this spring, looks like I need to replace the engine coupler on my 3.0 lx mercruiser. I had hoped that it was the prop,but I scribed a line on the hub and on the prop and after running it the lines were still lined up. So it looks as if I will be pulling the engine and installing a new coupling. Can anyone give me a heads up on where to get a good deal on a new engine coupler? And I would appreciate it if any of you could give me some pointers on the install of that new coupler. Thanks.

You will need to get yourself an alignment tool<br />when putting the engine back in.<br />Rich
