The spline that wouldn't, er....spline.

The engine dangles from nothing more than a hoist. My good friends at Haynes are telling me to 'lower the engine down and forward'.

So far Haynes hasnt led me astray.

So far.

So why cant I seperate the engine from the driveshaft??

I dont mean to say that its rooted right to it, I mean there is a good bit of play, but (I hate to admit it,) reefing on that dang engine trying to slip it off the spline is getting me nowhere...at the last second, it always seems to catch...like something inside that tube is holding the engine from slipping off the spline.

For the life of me I cant figure it out...am I simply not lining the engine up with the shaft enuff first? Bloody hell...
