Problem Solved
My problem was I needed to turn the lower unit shifter spline to the neutral position. I thought I had turned it all it would go trying to find neutral but I hadn't. Once I turned it more the lower unit gears went to neutral. Installed and everything is fine.
I had put the gear shift in neutral before taking the lower unit off but managed to shift it while I was replacing the water pump. Initially I was concerned cranking down on the spline with a pair of pliers to "make" it move would be like using a bigger hammer to solve the problem and ending up with a worse problem. |

Glad you got it figured out and back running again.
