Right.. the dist shaft has about an additional inch of length below the gear
drive and must fit into a machined hole to keep everything centralized.
Perhaps that connection point is galled or the thrust washer, if used, is
incorrect thickness or the gears are simply not properly engaged.. rock the
engine a bit.
