Mercury outboard question

I've had this off at least once if not twice before, and was only a 20 sec wrestling match. Once I got the right gasket installed, that's when the fun started lol. Yep splines are tapered on this one as well Dave, but similar to a damn steering coupler, ya need to hold your tongue the right way.
The simple ****.. :BangHead: :lol:
So, you are all set? Normal amount of leaks now??
