I presume you have wired the pump valve plunger up so it clears the cam on the 
main shaft.

Folks,

I've successfully (hopefully) rebuilt and upgraded my OD and gearbox, but can't 
seem to get them to, uh, mate properly.  I had aligned the splines in the rear 
of the OD with my mainshaft before assembling the gearbox, but even then they 
didn't want to merge and, of course, after several tries the splines became 
misaligned (and I don't have a much-desired spare mainshaft).  I've done my 
best to get the splines aligned by prodding with a screwdriver but, even with 
them visibly aligned the two won't slip together. I tried dozens of test 
fittings, and got them to join one time, but didn't have the pump can or gasket 
installed, so that was for naught.  Any suggestions?

TIA,

Bob
